To Kingdom Come

Fought for the party to kingdom come
Sadly told his only son
Just be careful what you do
It all comes back on you
False witness spread the news
Somebody's gonna lose
Either she or me or you
Nothing we could do

So don't you say a word
Or repeat a thing you heard
Time will tell you well
If the truth truly fell
Tarred and feathered, yeah, thistles and thorns
One or the other, he kindly warned
Now you look out the window, tell me, what do you see?
I see a golden calf pointing back at me

We've been sitting here for so darn long
Waiting for the end to come along
Holy roaster on the brink
I'd take a choice, swim or sink
False witness cast an evil eye
Said I cannot tell a lie
Kings and saints don't bother me
I'm not alone, you see

So don't you say a word
Or repeat a thing you've heard
Time will tell you well
If you truly, truly fell

Tarred and feathered, yeah
Thistles and thorns
One or the other
He kindly warned

Now you look out the window, tell me
What do you see?
I see a golden calf pointing back at me
