Weatherbox — King Friend (The Showing of the Instruments) lyrics

Lyrics

King Reason is my king, he taught me, now I sing
He has the nose, knows what’s best
Sheepskin, his clothes, unwell-dressed
King Reason has a queen and I am in between
She held me down when I realized
Dead in the ground, we all will die
Queen Reason held me down, so I am still around
She could have said, «Heaven-sent.»
She held her tongue, did not relent
King Reason had a dream to become everything
He taught me how, housed me in
He taught me how, now I’m everything. (A King.)
Now I’m everything
You can’t be my friend, you can’t be my friend
You can’t be my friend, you can’t be, oh my God!
You can’t be my friend, you can’t be my friend
You can’t be my friend, you can’t be, oh my God, oh my God
