Current 93 - The Fall of Christopher Robin lyrics

rate me

Christopher Robin, is saying his prayers

But no one is up there, nobody cares

Christopher Robin, he prayes to the lord

For the starving young children, for the old and the cold

Christopher Robin, he falls to his knees

Wailing and crying alone in the night

Christopher Robin, his face wet with tears

I'm praying to Jesus, I hope that he hears

Christopher Robin, he does what he's told

Christopher's a darling, his heart glistens like gold

Christopher Robin, his soul is confused

Good and evil start to struggle and virtue loses

Christopher Robin, face to face with foe

All over the world he sees evil win and so

Christopher has a secret, one that he mustn't tell

He's drawn up a contract with the devil in hell

Christopher was greedy, Christopher was bad

He sold his soul to satan, boy will he be sad

Christopher Robin has a familiar

Chrisopher had a vision, into the abyss he saw

Christopher Robin never wanted to die

The devil promised him sweeties, but the devil lied

Christopher Robin, his face wet with tears

I'm praying to Jesus, I hope that he hears

Christopher Robin, he does what he's told

Christopher's a darling, his heart glistens like gold

Christopher Robin, his soul is confused

Good and evil start to struggle and virtue loses

Christopher Robin, face to face with foe

All over the world he sees evil win and so

Christopher's on a journey, he shall not return

In life he liked praying, now he's gonna burn

Christopher Robin, he falls down the stairs

His nightshirt ripped open, his flesh torn and bear

Christopher Robin, he's confined in his bed

Locked up in the darkness, alone til he's dead

Satan is patient, he's always got time

Now Christopher's a patient, as he in hospital lies

Christopher Robin, his face wet with tears

I'm praying to Jesus, I hope that he hears

Christopher Robin, he does what he's told

Christopher's a darling, his heart glistens like gold

Christopher Robin, his soul is confused

Good and evil start to struggle and virtue loses

Christopher Robin, face to face with foe

All over the world he sees evil win and so

Each tale has a message, we all must agree

All children who start praying, will burn in eternity

Christopher Robin, tsk tsk tsk

What a life

Never thought it would come to this

He called on proof

He called on proof

And dungeons and dragons were his only joy

Christopher Robin, what did you get into?

And where will you go in hell?

Burning and praying in a lake of fire

With all those other sinners

Fingers burned, Christopher Robin

And there will not be another time
