No Big Surprise

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I hauled my ass to hell and gone

put the boots to the dawn

The sky was empty and the stars were bright

But it snowed like December on a summer night

All that screaming and all those moans

Honey, don't it make you cry

lt wasn't very pretty and it wasn't real nice

But that was no big surprise

I saw your heart when I looked in your eyes

That's where the shadows lie

Stop your whining you son of a bitch

I've got the bull by the horns, I've got my hand on the whip

All you showed me was a clever disguise

You thought I wasn't wise

Bot I saw your heart when I looked in your eyes

And that was no big surprise

All of your schemes and those well laid plans

Have come tumbling down

Nothing will be left of this ruin end death

You're out of money end you're out of breath

I'm lighter than air, I'm a cloud of smoke

You're fucking finished end that's no joke

With a snap of my fingers, in the blink of an eye

That was no big surprise

Can you hear my prayer?

As it floats on high

Do you want to know why?

Like the fish in the deep blue see

Like an eagle in a clear blue sky

I've got no time to wonder why

I've got a gun in my pocket and a knife in my hand

I'm one hell of a man

I'm ten feet tall, I've lived a thousand years

I've got nothing to hope for and nothing to teer

I carved a path from here to there, end then I

Vanished into thin air

I took the big plunge and I won the big prize

But that was no big surprIse
