CECIL (Hook)

Now the candle's in the window and it's open / We watch the flames duke it

Out with every gust and we're hoping / no, it must just burn to the bottom

Of the wick / It's the bottom of the 5th and that shit is still burning /

We're still turning every table when it's needed / Not laying there

Defeated, no / We draw our bows back repeatedly / Then off with the arrows,

And the Gods and the Pharaohs / From the bottom of our hearts we're from

The bottom of the barrel / Now, peril knows no bounds / terror won't slow

Down / but there's a whole low down of beauty to be shown now / We broke

Ground / and broke our backs stacking bricks / We never broke our promises;

You'll never know just half of it / We're adamant on building every wall

And stair sturdy / and when our work is done, then we'll call our shares

Worthy / In this land of milk and honey, we're too shy to say we're thirsty

/ We just make a little money and we... / we buy a little mercy

CHANNY (Hook)

No more / my lord / No more / my lord / Lord I'll never / turn back / no

More / my lord

CECIL (Hook)

DESSA

If you welcome every trespass / then every tramp's a guest / Give what they

Would take from you / then every theft's a gift / Hold too tightly to

What's in your hands or in your chest / and the future it won't open, palm

Reader's can't work fists / Broken bones are stronger for the breaking /

No, the danger's in the bending / those concessions that you never can take

Back / Curl you round a cane / you're still in tact, but now quite lame /

Better to grit your teeth, ready the cast and let it snap / We're always

First to come in / we're running when we hit the ground / We never do leave

Early / stand sentry at the lost and found / We just make a little money /

And we start that long walk into town / where we buy a little mercy

CHANNY (Hook)

CECIL

So no more talk about the backfires / this time we fire back / Light a

Match and light the past up before it catches up / We'll raise a mast and

Cast off / Yeah, we'll break some legs and mend em / and then we'll take

Our casts off / Now, we've had our losses / We've had our victories / We've

Sat across from every victim of their misery / That pounding in our chests

Was just a symptom of our sympathy / We'll lay ourselves to rest with both

Our winnings and our injuries / We're so hungry / We're so thirsty / I'm

Gonna hunt until it hurts me (and it hurts me) / We're aching (aching) /

We're so thirsty / But, we're gonna make a little money / ...and buy a

Little mercy
