Earthly Pleasure - Villagers[00:00:00]

[00:00:08]

Naked on the toilet with a toothbrush in his mouth [00:00:13]

When he suddenly acquired an overwhelming sense of doubt [00:00:16]

Every single piece of baggage he'd been holding on his back [00:00:20]

Was beginning to dig dig dig in and his back began began to crack [00:00:24]

And when he finally broke up he found that he'd been breaking down [00:00:28]

Little body little soul little shrapnel on the ground[00:00:32]

So he started to examine from the clumsy to the cute [00:00:36]

From the fat fat cat to the destitute[00:00:40]

From the chat fat cat to the mute[00:00:44]

[00:00:47]

Oh earthly pleasure ring out[00:00:47]

From the rigors of this road[00:00:52]

Earthly pleasure ring out[00:00:55]

From the caverns of my soul[00:00:59]

[00:01:03]

Then suddenly he found themselves in 1822[00:01:04]

And he was in another body in a heavy sort of suit[00:01:08]

He was surrounded but he'd started making plans to make a run[00:01:12]

When they called to him son cock your gun[00:01:16]

And so he did as all the others had already done[00:01:20]

He put his finger on the trigger and he gave 'em some[00:01:24]

And though he don't like to admit it it was sensual and pure[00:01:28]

And he changed that day though he can't be sure[00:01:32]

If it's the sickness or the cure [00:01:36]

[00:01:39]

Oh earthly pleasure ring out[00:01:40]

From the rigors of this road[00:01:43]

Earthly pleasure ring out[00:01:47]

From the caverns of my soul[00:01:51]

[00:01:55]

So there he was in front of her divine simplicity[00:01:56]

And she was speaking Esperanto and drinking ginger tea[00:02:00]

As she inquired about the reason for his visit here today[00:02:04]

Well he just said no reason and I really shouldn't stay [00:02:08]

And so he thought that she would think that he was some kind of freak[00:02:12]

And that he'd go back to the grind and that he wouldn't last a week[00:02:16]

But she didn't she just sighed and added softly with a smile[00:02:20]

Sit down dear child what's on your mind [00:02:24]

And so he frantically described to her the kingdom at her feet[00:02:28]

As she continued with her manicure and poured another tea[00:02:32]

As he recounted tales of misery and suffering and pain[00:02:36]

She was yawning at the ceiling so we had to up his game[00:02:40]

The only thing your children cherish is to move up the ranks[00:02:44]

Lucifer is in our courts Beelzebub is in our banks[00:02:47]

And if you don't cooperate with us we'll hang you 'til you're dead[00:02:52]

So she granted him a wish and let him write it on her head[00:02:56]

And when he read it back to her this is all it said[00:03:00]

[00:03:03]

Earthly pleasure ring out[00:03:03]

From the rigors of this road[00:03:08]

Earthly pleasure ring out[00:03:11]

From the caverns of my soul[00:03:15]

[00:03:19]

Now I truly understand[00:03:19]

But I don't understand a thing[00:03:23]

So let this earthly pleasure sing[00:03:27]

Earthly pleasure[00:03:35]
