Come lay it down, (won't you)
Come burn it down (can't you)
Lay it down, (the guns) above the ground (won't you)

Lay it down (won't you)
Burn it down (can't you)
Lay it down, (the guns) above the ground (won't you)

Nlelith is a prophet
From the prophet came the king
From the king came the pauper
From the pauper came the swing
From the swing came creation
From creation came love
You don't know what this love is all about

Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
Praise, praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
Life-affirming and our spiritual trust

Lay it down (won't you)
Burn it down (can't you)
Lay it down, (the guns) above the ground (won't you)

Nlelith is a prophet
From the prophet came the king
From the king came the pauper
From the pauper came the swing
From the swing came creation
From creation came love
You don't know what this love is all about

Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
Praise, praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
Praise, praise the Lord and pass the ammunition

Buddha, Mohammad and the Hindu
Lost 100

Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
Praise, praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
People still ask, "when will armageddon begin?"

Dragging my feet any longer through the pussy litter
Dragging my feet any longer through the pussy litter
Dragging my feet any longer through the pussy litter

Nlelith is a prophet
From the prophet came the king
From the king came the pauper
From the pauper came the swing
From the swing came creation
From creation came love
You don't know what this love is all about

Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
Praise, praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition
Praise, praise the Lord and pass the ammunition

Do we ever have enough?
When we see that blue dove
Do we ever have enough?
When we see that blue dove
We want to go where no one's been
No one's been

Come lay it down, (won't you)
Come burn it down (can't you)
Lay it down, (the guns) above the ground

(Yeah)

    Both the above have only commented on 2 lines, i think this shows exactly how this song can be looked at. I feel both examinations above are valid but to be devil's advocate hardly conclusive. I would be greatful to learn who Nlelith is? what is meant by

    "Dragging my feet any longer through the pussy litter" and what the swing is or represents?

    One of best on album if not thee.

    Brilliant album very artistic, have to concede it could be mistaken for just another system album but that takes nothing away from it.
