The Tiger Lillies
Job’s Song
You were desperate, you were bereft,
You went to God, and asked him to you bless
You begged to God’s blessed heart
God looks, and starts to laugh...
You were desperate, you were bereft,
You went to Satan, asked him to bless
You begged to Satan’s blessed heart
Satan looks at you and starts to laugh...
You were desperate, you were bereft,
You went to the Angel, asked him to bless
You went to the Angel’s blessed heart
The Angel looks at you and starts to laugh...
You were desperate, you were bereft,
You went to Man and asked him, to you bless
You went to the Man’s blessed heart
Man looks at you and starts to laugh...
Always it’s been the same
The winners, they can play the game
Always the same, from times long past
You help yourself for they’ll you shaft
You went to Man, help you asked Man looks at you and starts to laugh
You went to Man, help, you asked, Look at Man, as at you he laughs...
