Balaam Lyrics by Daniel Cave

Pith of the Earth

0

An apostate to auspicate
An apposite opposite
Enigmatic composite
A prophet for profit
Learned to redeposit
A shilling in his pocket
In exchange for the docket
Of the tellings of his voodoo poppet

Balaam
Balaam

Con man on a
Holy donkey
Walking wonky
When it saw the angel
With the mouth of Gabriel
Give the pious appraisal
Of the camp of Israel
And the man domanial
Beat the donkey cranial
Til it spit the truth
With a blood split tooth

Balaam
Balaam

“I’m your bum-ride
Taken you places
With the utmost obeisance
Now if I’m getting loquacious
Then you better rain some patience
Cuz this trip is in abeyance
To negotiate complications
Of hallucination revelations.”

Balaam
Balaam

Sleazy seer
Bought by fear
That wrought a fire
On the pyre
Curse for hire
Made a blessing
Undesired
By the king
You wicked thing
You wicked, sicked, tricked thing

Balaam
Balaam

Gave a five-fold blessing
Addressing and professing
While his scheme was progressing
To get the gals undressing
With idle men confessing
To idols between legs
Among the chosen dregs
Made apocryphal pregs
Stabbed a woman through her stomach
Through the man who stabbed her buttock
For a mare and a jack make a mule

Balaam
Balaam

God-man
On a homely donkey
Water-walker
On a palm stomper
Burdenous beast
Cropping wheats
Colt-blood tiller
Is a Zechy fulfiller

Balaam
Balaam

Abide the
A-B-I-E-D
Animal-born
Improvised
Explosive device
Lead a horse to water
Lead a donkey to slaughter
Eruption importer
It’s the equus mortar
It’s a bomber
Up for charter
With the starter
To the fuze
Born to bear
The bomb
That went off

Blasphemy
Baptistry
Alchemy
Amnesty
Casualty
Chastity

Balaam

The donkey
Walking wonky
With the con
And the God
And the bomb
And the donkey
Walking wonky
With the con
And the God
And the bomb
And the donkey
Walking wonky
With the con
And the God
And the bomb
And the donkey
