He knows well his wicked ways[00:00:18]

A course of bitterness[00:00:22]

A grudge held from his childhood days[00:00:27]

As if life had loved him less[00:00:31]

Reading down his list of names[00:00:36]

He ticks them one by one[00:00:39]

He points the barrel at the sky[00:00:45]

Firing shots off at the sun[00:00:49]

"I am the law and I am the King[00:00:57]

I am the wisdom listen to me sing"[00:01:06]

He carves out the victim's names[00:01:11]

In the wooden butt of the gun[00:01:15]

He leans well back against the tree[00:01:20]

He knows his Kingdom's come[00:01:23]

He'll breath a sigh self satisfied[00:01:28]

The work is in good hands[00:01:32]

He shoots the coins into the air[00:01:38]

And follows where the money lands[00:01:41]

"I am the law and I am the King[00:01:50]

I am the wisdom listen to me sing"[00:01:59]

He pauses at the city's edge[00:02:04]

Of hellfire and of stone[00:02:07]

He summons up the devil there[00:02:12]

To give him courage of his own[00:02:16]

He'll free the sinners of deceit[00:02:21]

They'll hear his name and run[00:02:25]

His justice is his own reward[00:02:30]

Measured out beneath the sun[00:02:34]

"I am the law and I am the King[00:02:43]

I am the wisdom listen to me sing"[00:02:52]

And my name's on the gun[00:02:57]
