My Lion Sleeps Tonight
Lyrics
Distant country
My share of the estate
Poison
Stomach
Is filled with
Pig pods
No longer worthy
To be called your son
But papa runs to me
And in his arms
?Round me he does throw
I've been given best robe
Rings and sandals
For my bloody feet
Bring on the fatted calf
And let us all have a feast
This son of mine once was dead
But now is alive again
My
Lion
Sleeps
Tonight
As a dog returns
To his vomit
So I have run
I set my affection on thee
The only one and
I turn my eyes from all
The worthless things and
I set my affection on thee
The only one and, oh
The only one, oh
This son is done and, oh
This son is done and, oh
This son is done
The poison has been drained
