My Lion Sleeps Tonight

Distant country

My share of the estate

PoisonStomach

Is filled with

Pig podsNo longer worthy

To be called your son

But papa runs to meAnd in his arms

Round me he does throw

Ive been given best robeRings and sandals

For my bloody feetBring on the fatted calf

And let us all have a feast

This son of mine once was dead

But now is alive againMy

Lion

Sleeps

TonightAs a dog returns

To his vomit

So I have runI set my affection on thee

The only one and

I turn my eyes from all

The worthless things andI set my affection on thee

The only one and, oh

The only one, oh

This son is done and, oh

This son is done and, oh

This son is doneThe poison has been drained
