Jim Jones Lyrics by SKYND

Chapter II

2019

[Verse 1]
Come live comradery, ah
In harmony, ah
One big community
Utopian society, ah
Come live equality, ah
No boundaries, ah
Human economy, ah
Did I say no boundaries? Ah

[Refrain]
Come, come to God
Come to the temple, come, come
Come, come to God
We shall overcome someday
Come to God
Come to the temple, come, come
Come, come to God
Suicide Sunday

[Chorus]
Hey, Dad, thanks, Dad, hurry, sisters, hurry
It's all over, all over, hurry, children, hurry
White night, drink Flavor Aid cyanide
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah
Get up, get up, get up and lay down your life
Drink it, drink it, drink up the flavored cyanide
Get up, get up, get up and lay down your life
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up
Drink it, drink it, drink it, drink it, drink it
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up
Drink it, drink it, drink it, drink it, drink it
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah

[Verse 2]
The edge of paradise, ah
Seems very nice, ah
And then you see his vices
Selling monkies, godless junkie
Religious holy roller
A mind controller
No one can leave, I told you
Holy growler, blind patroller

[Refrain]
Come, come to God
Come to the temple, come, come
Come, come to God
We shall overcome someday
Come to God
Come to the temple, come, come
Come, come to God
Suicide Sunday

[Chorus]
Get up, get up, get up and lay down your life
Drink it, drink it, drink up the flavored cyanide
Get up, get up, get up and lay down your life
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah
Hey, Dad, thanks, Dad, hurry, sisters, hurry
It's all over, all over, hurry, children, hurry
White night, drink Flavor Aid cyanide
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up
Drink it, drink it, drink it, drink it, drink it
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah
Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up
Drink it, drink it, drink it, drink it, drink it
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah

[Bridge]
Noos uoy htiw eb ll'I
Daerps uoy tahw ekat ll'I
Noos uoy htiw eb ll'I
Raef ot gnihton s'erehT

[Breakdown]
909 souls, don't do this
Nine oh, nine oh, no more pain now
909 souls, it's easy
I'm gonna take on all your battles
909 souls, don't do this
Nine oh, nine oh, no more pain now
909 souls, it's easy
I'm gonna take on all your battles

[Chorus]
Hey, Dad, thanks, Dad, hurry, sisters, hurry
It's all over, all over, hurry, children, hurry
White night, drink Flavor Aid cyanide
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah

[Outro]
Come, come to God
Come to the temple, come, come
Come, come to God
We shall overcome someday
Come to God
Come to the temple, come, come, come
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah
Come, come to God
Come to the temple, come, come
Come, come to God
We shall overcome someday
Come to God
Come to the temple, come, come, come
Lay down your life, lay down your life, yeah
