Dear Sons And Daughters Of Hungry Ghosts
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 got a hand
So I got a fist
So I got a plan
It's the best that I can do
Now we'll say it's in God's hands
But God doesn't always have the best goddamn plans, does he?
I ain't quite the beauty
Pulls out two guns and shoots at the pretty, pretty pure white--
Gotta keep thinking, things, hunters and kings
To block out the view, I gotta get
New bell to ring
New song to sing
A steady hand to ring
A readiness of things I do
I gotta get a new plan to bring to the people
People I can trick them into thinking anything
Oh rust it just right in the light
It's gold, it's gold
I got
Water and holes in my hands
I'm a digger of holes in the land
It's the easiest way
And you know
It's the easiest way
So I go
Lalalalalala
I got water and I got holes, so
Lalalalalala
Sons and daughters of hungry ghosts
I got water and I got holes, so
Lalalalalala
Sons and daughters of hungry ghosts
Lalalalalala
I got a hand
So I got a fist
So I got a plan
It's the best that I can do
Now we'll say it's in God's hands
But God doesn't always have the best goddamn plans, does he?
I can't believe in the guns
I can't believe in the view
I sing, sing
Lalalalalala
I can't believe in those other things
I got a new plan to bring
I got a new song to sing
And it goes
Lalalalalala
And you know it's the easiest way
