Crucifixion Lyrics

by Phil Ochs Lyrics

album There and Now: Live in Vancouver Lyrics


Crucifixion
Em
And the night comes again to the circle studded sk
GB
The stars settle slowly, in lonliness they li
AmDGE
'Till the universe expodes as a falling star is raise
AmDGE
Planets are paralyzed, mountains are amaze
AmDGE
But they all glow brighter from the briliance of the blaz
AmDE
With the speed of insanity, then he dies
In the green fields a turnin', a baby is bor
His cries crease the wind and mingle with the mor
An assault upon the order, the changing of the guar
Chosen for a challenge that is hopelessly har
And the only single sound is the sighing of the star
But to the silence and distance they are swor
EmC
So dance dance danc
E
Teach us to be tru

Come dance dance danc
DE
'Cause we love yo
Images of innocence charge him go o
But the decadence of destiny is looking for a paw
To a nightmare of knowledge he opens up the gat
And a blinding revelation is laid upon his plat
That beneath the greatest love is a hurricane of hat
And God help the critic of the dawn
So he stands on the sea and shouts to the shore
But the louder that he screams the longer he's ignore
For the wine of oblivion is drunk to the dreg
And the merchants of the masses almost have to be begge
'Till the giant is aware, someone's pulling at his leg
And someone is tapping at the door
To dance dance danc
Teach us to be tru
Come dance dance danc
'Cause we love yo
Then his message gathers meaning and it spreads accross the lan
The rewarding of his pain is the following of the ma
But ignorance is everywhere and people have their wa
Success is an enemy to the losers of the da
In the shadows of the churches, who knows what they pra
For blood is the language of the band
The Spanish bulls are beaten; the crowd is soon beguiled
The matador is beautiful, a symphony of styl
Excitement is estatic, passion places bet
Gracefully he bows to ovations that he get
But the hands that are applauding are slippery with swea
And saliva is falling from their smile
So dance dance danc
Teach us to be tru
Come dance dance danc
'Cause we love yo
Then this overflow of life is crushed into a lia
The gentle soul is ripped apart and tossed into the fire
First a smile of rejection at the nearness of the nigh
Truth becomes a tragedy limping from the ligh
All the (canons|heavens) are horrified, they stagger from the sigh
As the cross is trembling with desire
They say they can't believe it, it's a sacreligious sham
Now, who would want to hurt such a hero of the game
But you know I predicted it; I knew he had to fal
How did it happen?I hope his suffering was small
Tell me every detail, I've got to know it all
And do you have a picture of the pain
So dance dance danc
Teach us to be tru
Come dance dance danc
'Cause we love yo
Time takes her toll and the memory fade
but his glory is broken, in the magic that he made
Reality is ruined; it's the freeing from the fea
The drama is distorted, to what they want to hea
Swimming in their sorrow, in the twisting of a tea
As they wait for a new thrill parade
The eyes of the rebel have been branded by the blin
To the safety of sterility, the threat has been refine
The child was created to the slaughterhouse he's le
So good to be alive when the eulogy is rea
The climax of emotion, the worship of the dea
And the cycle of sacrifice unwinds
So dance dance danc
Teach us to be tru
Come dance dance danc
'Cause we love yo
And the night comes again to the circle studded sk
The stars settle slowly, in lonliness they li
'Till the universe expodes as a falling star is raise
Planets are paralyzed, mountains are amaze
But they all glow brighter from the briliance of the blaz
With the speed of insanity, then he died.
