Pound Of Flesh lyrics
If you're never sorry
Then you can't be forgiven If you're not forgiven Then you can't be forgotten If you're not forgotten Then you can live forever If you live forever Then you'll begin to dream of death Ezra Pound sat upon my bed Asked me which books as of late I've read Ezra Pound sat upon my bed Asked me which books as of late I've read Asked me if I've read his own And whether I could spare A pound of flesh to cover his bare bones I says, man, take a pound, take two What's a pound of flesh Between friends like me and you? What's a pound of flesh among friends? But if you're never sorry If you're never sorry Then you can't be forgiven If you're not forgiven Then you can't be forgotten If you're not forgotten Then you must live forever If you live forever You cannot be reborn If you're not reborn Then you can't be a baby If you're not a baby You can't learn how to crawl If you cannot crawl away Then you must stay in bed all day If you stay in bed all day You're sure to have some visitors Ezra Pound'll sit upon your bed Ask you which books as of late you have read Ask you if you've read his own And whether you could spare A pound of flesh to cover his bare bones You'll say, man, take a pound, take two What's a pound of flesh Between friends like me and you? What's a pound of flesh among friends?
