tale of mathias - king giant lyrics
brother elijah … a bourbon drinking, violent man
sister teresa … a rosary wrapped around her hand
like so many others, they would drink and fight
like a vagabond he would roam the streets
each and every night
until one april morning, when he did not appear
the telephone rang at the station house
the neighbors watched in awe and fear
a match made in heaven – or was it born in h-ll
seemed a lovely couple – in this god forsaken town
led outside in shackles – she muttered but one sound
“my peers they will decide my fate”
“i give my soul to this little town”
she laughed and then she cried
“he didn’t think i had it in me”
“he coughed and then he died”
“last time he ever laid a hand on me”
“it was a case of self defense”
she smiled upon the stand
she waited till he laid his head
took the axe into her hand
there was no denying it
the decision handed down
ain’t leavin’ here in one piece girl
so say the people of this town
she laughed and then she cried
“he didn’t think i had it in me”
“he coughed and then he died”
“last time he ever laid a hand on me”
