The Leatherwood God Lyrics by A Slight Threat

Song Book! (or: 100 Alltime Favorites)

2024

[Verse 1]
Back in August by the church, a man had shouted through the birch
While Mister Crum was preaching
Now, I was taken by surprise and saw a man before my eyes
Who claimed to be a being
[Pre-Chorus]
He held a bible in his hand and wore a yellow beaver hat
He seemed to be a liar, but what do I know about that?
[Chorus]
Born in an unknown place at an unknown time
With an unknown face and an unknown rhyme
Who the heck's this guy?
[Verse 2]
He had much knowledge of the tome and came to build a kingdom home
Of which would be eternal
We didn't know if he was right, but if he was it would be fine
Declared he was immortal
[Pre-Chorus]
We started following his steps, though, some had not agreed with that
"It's not a crime to be a god," the squire said about that
[Chorus]
Born in an unknown place at an unknown time
With an unknown face and an unknown rhyme
Who the heck's this guy?
Who the heck's this guy?
[Pre-Chorus]
He'd disappeared without a trace and now, nobody knows his face
He seemed to be a liar, but what do I know about that?
[Chorus]
Born in an unknown place at an unknown time
With an unknown face and an unknown rhyme
Who the heck's this guy?
Who the heck's this guy?
Who the heck's this guy?
