0:17Judas friends have got so strong
0:25It's through the way they made you
0:28Carry someone else's wrong
0:33I've seen the way he ties you down
0:41To Blind Man's Bluff in a bridal gown
0:48So you beat him at his games
0:51(So you beat him at his games)
0:53So he had to change the rules
0:56Please be cruel
1:05Every word that's spoken's
1:07Ringing in your ears
1:13This light we look upon
1:16Has gone and passed a thousand years
1:21He says you're mutton dressed as lamb
1:29But he's a vegetarian
1:36So you live to fight another day
