Animal Skins Lyrics by Crack the Sky

Animal Notes

1976

[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Shine on backwards, oh, masters of my fate
Tell me, great ones, just how I rate
Should I bow my head or scream your holy names?
Tell me, dear ones, am I still in the game?
[Verse 2]
Shine on up, down, to you dear lords I pray
Give me answers and happiness today
Should I dress in white or wear thee 'round my neck?
Tell me, great ones, just how to write the check
[Chorus]
To pay for my sins
And keep my lords in animal skins
To pay for my acts
And keep my lords in white Cadillacs
To pay for my sins
And keep my lords in animal skins
To pay for my acts
And keep my lords in white Cadillacs
[Instrumental Outro]
