             Am                 C                G           Am
What Say you Lord For the olive boys down in the house of corrections 
                 C           G        Am
As they try for love and any form of ascension 
             C          G                     Am
Am I on the right train headed in the wrong direction?
             C    G
What say you Lord What say you Lord

Am I living wrong? Do you see a long road with no one on it 
And the right of men that you only learnt to forget 
You see my sad wife and my high margin of profit 
But you don't care at all You don't care... at all

What say you Lord Now that they're breeding all our animals insane 
And the remedy is growing harder to obtain 
There's a white horse running wild through the switch-cane 
I can hear him now And I fear him

Interlude

'Til Kingdom come Caught in this frenzy of elimination 
Such an irreparable disintegration 
My body's twitching with a ready expectation 
For Kingdom come My Kingdom!

What say you Lord Why is the truth of this so hard to unveil? 
Though it's true I never knew what this would entail 
From the hands of Christ to the heads of the Daily Mail 
I'll see you all And I'll raise you

Interlude

What say you Lord I wonder when this light is brought up for sale 
With the weight of love and the grace of a Baleen Whale 
Will the severed Heads of State be at all curtailed 
Will they be here at all - When they're dead and gone?

What say you Lord Of the serpent-talied, forbidden fish of the harbours 
And the ready-men, defiant drinkers and charmers 
All lost and summoning the face of their fathers 
Can see them now? I can see them

What say you all Do I believe it if I do not want it 
Do I lie alone and keeps my cold hands off it 
Honey, it ain't hard to lose your grip in the midst of all of this 
But it ain't far to fall It's not far at all
