[00:01.25] - Johnny The Mercy Cash Seat
[00:02.91] It all began when they took me from my home
[00:05.59] And put me on Death Row,
[00:07.40] a crime for which I am totally innocent, you know.
[00:11.39]
[00:12.82] I began to warm and chill
[00:14.63]
[00:15.63] To objects and their fields,
[00:18.13] A ragged cup, a twisted mop
[00:20.07]
[00:20.75] The face of Jesus in my soup
[00:22.87]
[00:23.56] Those sinister dinner deals
[00:25.49]
[00:26.18] The meal trolley\'s wicked wheels
[00:28.05]
[00:28.93] A hooked bone rising from my food
[00:31.73] All things either good or ungood.
[00:34.48] And the mercy seat is waiting
[00:36.47]
[00:37.03] And I think my head is burning
[00:39.71] And in a way I\'m yearning
[00:41.84] To be done with all this weighing of the truth.
[00:45.65] An eye for an eye
[00:47.08] And a tooth for a tooth
[00:48.45] And anyway I told the truth
[00:50.83]
[00:51.51] And I\'m not afraid to die.
[00:53.51]
[00:59.63] I hear stories from the chamber
[01:02.31] Christ was born into a manger
[01:04.87] And like some ragged stranger
[01:07.11] He died upon the cross
[01:09.17] Might I say, it seems so fitting in its way
[01:13.17] He was a carpenter by trade
[01:16.03] Or at least that\'s what I\'m told
[01:18.85]
[01:24.09] My kill-hand\'s
[01:25.21] tatooed E.V.I.L. across it\'s brother\'s fist
[01:28.58]
[01:29.57] That filthy five! They did nothing to challenge or resit
[01:35.01] In Heaven His throne is made of gold
[01:38.01] The ark of his Testament is stowed
[01:40.63] A throne from which I\'m told All history does unfold.
[01:44.36]
[01:45.18] It\'s made of wood and wire
[01:47.74] And my body is on fire
[01:49.98]
[01:51.41] And God is never far away.
[01:54.35] Into the mercy seat I climb
[01:57.03] My head is shaved, my head is wired
[01:59.78] And like a moth that tries
[02:01.78] To enter the bright eye
[02:04.02] I go shuffling out of life
[02:06.84] Just to hide in death awhile
[02:09.64]
[02:10.83] And anyway I never lied.
[02:13.75] And the mercy seat is waiting
[02:16.37] And I think my head is burning
[02:18.50]
[02:19.06] And in a way I\'m yearning
[02:21.18] To be done with all this weighing of the truth.
[02:24.87] An eye for an eye And a tooth for a tooth
[02:28.11] And anyway I told the truth And I\'m not afraid to die
[02:33.17] And the mercy seat is burning
[02:35.47] And I think my head is glowing
[02:37.72]
[02:38.41] And in a way I\'m hopin\'
[02:40.71] to be done with all this twistin\' of the truth.
[02:44.21] An eye for an eye And a tooth for a tooth
[02:46.77] And any way there was no proof And I\'m not afraid to die
[02:52.33] And the mercy seat is glowing
[02:54.95] And I think my head is smoking
[02:57.12]
[02:57.69] And in a way I\'m hopin\'
[02:59.24] to be done with all these looks of disbelief.
[03:03.37] A life for a life And a truth for a truth
[03:06.29] And I\'ve got nothin\' left to loose.
[03:09.29] And I\'m not afraid to die
[03:11.67] And the mercy seat is smoking
[03:13.66]
[03:14.35] And I think my head is melting
[03:16.22]
[03:16.79] And in a way that\'s helpin\' to be done with all this twistin\' of the truth
[03:22.65] An eye for an eye And a tooth for a tooth
[03:25.27] And any way I told the truth
[03:28.27] But I\'m afraid I told a lie.
