Cain got a milk eyed mule from the auction

Abel got a telephone

And even the last of the blue eyed babies know

That the burning man is the color of the end of day

And how every tongue that gets bit
Always has another word to say

Cain bought a blade from some witch at the window

Abel bought a bag of ****

And even the last of the brown eyed babies see

That the cartoon king has a tattoo of
A bleeding heart

There ain't a penthouse christian
That wants the pain of the scab
But they all want the scar

How every mouth sings of what
It's without so we all sing of love

And how it ain't one dog who's good at *******
And denying who he's thinking of

Woo woo

Cain heard a cat tumble limp off the rooftop
Abel heard his papa pray

And even the last of the black eyed babies say

That every saint has a chair you can
Borrow in a church to sell

That the wind blows cold across the backs of a master
And the kitchen help

There's a big pile of innocent bones
Still holding up the garden wall

And it was always the broken hand

We learned to lean on after all

How god knows if christ came back
He'd find us in a poker game

After finding out the drinks were all free
But they won't let you out the door again

Woo woo
