Frank Black
The Word (Reprise)
My baby's lost
Up on the road
Up on the royal road

Up on the road
My baby's lost
Without the secret code

[x 8]
The word

I said the word
The word was "truth"
And then the truth was blurred
My eyes have seen
A world of eyes
I wished I'd never heard

[x8]
The word

Oh, have you heard?
The other word?
The word will stop his breath
Oh not too long
Don't wait too long
I hear the word is "death"
[x8]
The word
