John Fullbright - Fat Man lyrics

rate me

In my dreams I see a fat man

On his face is a frown

He's got money in his left hand

In his right he's got strings that run

All over town

As he pulls on them tightly he chokes all that grows

He keeps watch day and nightly and plucks life

Like a rose.

In my dreams I see the young men

That will change history

They will die for the fat man

As he laughs so carelessly

In his laughter I hear the sorrow

From the pain that it brings

I hear mothers weeping softly

Wrapped up tightly

In his strings.

Cut the strings from his fingers

Wrap them twice around his throat

Show him not your kind mercy

From the laws that he forgot he wrote

Let us know of that which binds us

That which steals all that grows

That which kills what defines us

To be plucked

Like a rose.
