Abel And Cain Lyrics by Marc Almond
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
(Race of Abel)Eat, sleep and drinkGod smiles on you contentedly(Race of Cain)In filth and stink grovelAnd die wretchedly(Race of Abel)Your sacrifice smells goodTo an angel's nose(Race of Cain)What's the priceOf your torment and woes?(Race of Abel)Watch your seeds sproutYour cattle grow fat(Race of Cain)Your guts pleadFor hunger howls like a wild cat!(Race of Abel)Warm your insidesAt the patriarchal fire(Race of Cain)In your dank hides poor jackalsTrembling and dire(Race of Abel)Make love and spawnFor your gold will likewise delight(Race of Cain)When your hearts burnWatch out for such appetites(Race of Abel)Grow and grazeDevour the world like the pest(Race of Cain)Along rough waysDrag your families in distress(Race of Abel)Your foul carcassWill manure the reeking ground(Race of Cain)Up off your arseYour work is once again found(Race of Abel)Here's your shameThe fire is vanquished by the rod(Race of Cain)Take up your claimOut of the heavens fling God!
