Effigy Lyrics by Gov’t Mule

The Deep End, Volume 1

0

Last night
I saw a fire burning on the palace lawn
O'er the land
The humble subjects watched in mixed emotion

Who is burnin'?
Who is burnin'?
Effigy
Who is burnin'?
Who is burnin'?
Effigy

Last night
I saw the fire spreadin' to the palace door
Silent majority
Weren't keepin' quiet anymore

Who is burnin'?
Who is burnin'?
Effigy
Who is burnin'?
Who is burnin'?
Effigy

Last night
I saw the fire spreadin' to the countryside
In the mornin'
Few were left to watch the ashes die

Who is burnin'?
Who is burnin'?
Effigy
Who is burnin'?
Who is burnin'?
Effigy

Why?
Why?
Why?
Effigy

Why?
Who is burnin'?
Burnin', burnin', burnin'

Who is burnin'?
Tell me who is burnin'?
