Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A jester of sorts, you stand holding your courts
Over minions of Capitol Hill
In a bath full of blood I'm alone standing still
Under God, you can fire at will (One, two, three, four )
[Verse 2]
And when the devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us
Laying in their graves
Damnation free for all
[Verse 3]
A prodigal son can't undo what he's done
A figurehead of capital crime
With a light shining down as you fall to your knees
To repent would be nothing but lies (One, two, three, four )
[Verse 4]
And when the devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us
Laying in their graves
Damnation free for all
[Verse 5]
Deadbeat, six feet, dead underground
An eye for an eye only leaves us all blind
Goin' once, twice, and there goes your life
[Verse 6]
When the devil's angels come
To take your life and lead you
To the flames beneath
Your headstone reads here lies the dead who was
Hung by his head beneath us
Laying in their graves
Damnation free for all
