solomon song - ellen greene lyrics

solomon song lyrics
[jenny]
you saw sagacious solomon
you know what came of him
to him complexities seemed plain
he cursed the hour that gave birth to him
and saw that everything was vain
how great and wise was solomon!
(spoken)
and look, his mirror gives him back
a face which history practiced on
was wisdom made him stand out from the pack
(sung)
how fortunate the man with none!

you saw the gallant caesar next
you know what came of him
they deified him in his life
then had him murdered just the same
and as they raised the fatal knife
how loud he cried “you too, my son!”
(spoken)
then look, his mirror gives him back
a face which history practiced on
was courage made him stand out from the pack
(sung)
how fortunate the man with none!
and now look at this man macheath
the sands are running out
if only he’d known where to stop
and stuck to crimes he knew all about
he surely would have reached the top
but suddenly his heart was won
(spoken)
then look, his mirror gives him back
a face which history practiced on
s*x urges made him stand out from the pack
(sung)
how fortunate the man with none!
