Clutch
Child of the City
[Verse 1]
Child of the city, Mother of the Earth
Baptism by firefly, pinch a parson’s purse

Queen of Cups the Joker’s blade is old and dull

Child of the City
Yet it slices us with the nicest miracles

[Verse 2]
Babe in the Wilderness, Father of Creation
Spinning of the wind, the gathering of nations

Professor on the Toadstool convene your class
Babe in the wilderness

[Clutch]
In absentia, please show your hands
And your feet. Are you touched by a beast?
Wash yourself, live your life. Take the Earth as your wife

False idol raiser, play the town
Count up your blessings and melt it down

[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
Immortal Dominator. Governor of the World
Sic semper tyrannis. The Fisher and the Pearl

The bearer of this letter is a charlatan
Immortal Dominator

[Clutch]
In absentia, please show your hands and your feet
And your feet. Are you touched by a beast?
Wash yourself, live your life. Take the Earth as your wife

False idol raiser, play the town
Count up your blessings and melt it down
All your money now, kid. All your money now, kid
All your money now, kid. All your money
