Martyr Lyrics by Shiner

Splay

1996

Keith played Jesus in the play
Method acted all the way
Pretty soon he felt our pain...
For our gain
Keith played Jesus in the play
Method acted all the way
Pretty soon he felt our pain...
For our gain

Watched my dog get hit today
Found my dog one year today
She won't ever know my pain...
I'll try again
Watched my dog get hit today
Found my dog one year today
She won't ever know my pain...
I'll try again

Son
Son
Gone

Keith played Jesus in the play
Method acted all the way
Pretty soon he felt our pain...
For our gain
Mary fell in love with Jane
Jane made Mary play her games
Now Mary cries and beats her face...
All in vain!
