Who'll build a box for | |
Black Paul? | |
Ah'm enquirin on behalf of his soul | |
Ah'd be beholdin to ya all | |
For a lil information, just a little indication | |
Just who'll dig the hole? | |
When ya done ransackin' his room grabbin any damn thing that shines, throw the scraps down on the street | |
Like all his books and his notes. | |
All his books and his notes and | |
All the junk that he wrote the whole fucken lot right up in smoke | |
Ain't there nuthin sacred anymore | |
Won't someone will build a box for | |
Black Paul? | |
And their shootin off his guns and their shootin off their mouths saying ' | |
Fuck with us ... and die!' ' | |
Fuck with us ... and die!' (Let's see that rat of fear go scuttle in their skulls) ' | |
Cover that eye! | |
Cover that frozen eye!' | |
Black-puppet, in a heap up against the stoning-wall | |
Black-puppet, go to sleep, ma-ma won't scold ya anymore | |
Armies of ants, wade up the lil red streams they're headin for the mother-pool | |
O lord, it's cruel! | |
O man it's hot! | |
O man it's hot and | |
And some of them ants they just climb to the spot | |
Who threw the first stone at | |
Black Paul? ' | |
Don't ask us', say the critics and the hacks | |
The pen-pushers and the quacks ' | |
We jes cum to git dah facks!' ' | |
We jes cum to git dah facks!' | |
Hey, hey, hey, hey... | |
Here is the hammer, that built the scaffold, and built the box... | |
Here is the shovel, that dug the hole, in this ground of rocks... | |
And here is the pile of stones! and for each one planted, | |
God only knows, a blood-rose grown... | |
These are the true | |
Demon-Flowers! | |
These are the true | |
Demon-Flowers! | |
Stand back everyone! | |
Blood-black everyone! | |
Who'll build a box for | |
Black Paul? | |
Who'll carry it up the hill? ' | |
Not I', said the widow, adjusting her veil ' | |
Ah will not drive the nail | |
Or cart his puppet-body home, | |
For ah done that one hundred times before, | |
Yeah! ah done that one hundred times or more, | |
And why should ah dress his wounds? | |
When he has wounded my dress, nightly, | |
Right across the floor' | |
Who'll build a box for | |
Black Paul? | |
Who'll carry it up the hill? | |
Who'll bury it in the black-soil? | |
And from the woods and the thickets | |
Come the ghosts of his victims ' | |
We love you!' ' | |
Ah love you!' 'and this will not hurt a bit, | |
Outta my eyes was your rise to full glory | |
Spring up from the corp(??) of life we'll go up, up, up, up, up into | |
Death up, up, up, up, inhale its breath | |
O yes, Death favours those that favor | |
Death' Here is the stone, and this is the inscription it bare: ' | |
Below Lies | |
Black Paul, | |
Under The | |
Upper... But | |
Above and | |
Beyond The | |
Surface-Flat- | |
Fall There.' | |
And all the angels come on down, | |
And all you men and women crowd around | |
And all the old widows weeping into their skirts | |
And all the lil gals and the lil | |
Boys And the scribes with their pens poised | |
All the hullaballoo, all the norse | |
All the hullaballoo, all the noise | |
All the hullaballoo, all of the noise clears his throat of black blood singin | |
Black Paul like a lonely boy... | |
We-e-e-ll, ah have cried one thousand tears | |
Ah've cried a thousand tears, its true | |
And the next stormy night you know, | |
That ah'm still cryin them for you | |
Well, ah had a gal she was so sweet, | |
Red dress, and long red hair hangin down | |
And heaven yes ain't heaven | |
Without that lil girl hangin around | |
Well, ya know ah've beenn a bad-man and | |
Lord knows ah done some good things too | |
But ah confess, my soul will never rest | |
Until you've, until you've build | |
Until you've built a box for my gal, too. my gal, too my gal, too |
