The Devil's Throat Lyrics - Artist : Bonnie "Prince" Billy
A bad captain won't give out good orders
A bad sideshow won't show good mutilations A bad emperor won't redraw good borders (Oh, no) A bad tailor won't make good alterations A bad ranger won't put out good fires A bad farmer won't raise what she needs A bad actor won't announce he retires (Oh, no) A bad Samaritan can't do a good deed That's what there is That's all she wrote My friends, you won't hear good songs flow From the devil's throat Good times weren't designed for bad children Good love wasn't made for them, too Good builders won't build a bad building (Oh, no) That's ain't something good builders do Good girls and bad boys can't make pleasure Good times and bad vibes won't co-exist Good fathers don't die good teachers won't lie Strong punches won't be thrown by feeble fists That's what there is That's all she wrote My friends, you won't hear good songs flow From the devil's throat Good praise won't leave you feeling hated Good health won't make you need to stay asleep And timely birthday wishes aren't belated (Oh, no) Giving freely can't be misconstrued as cheap Good fingers won't ignore the farthest reaches Dark tendencies won't bring the light around And hard oceans will erode the softest beaches (Oh, yeah) This song is not where evil can be found That's what there is That's all she wrote My friends, you won't hear good songs flow From the devil's throat |
