Dead Milkmen - I Tripped Over the Ottoman lyrics

at the dawning of time

thine heart didst proclaim

thy throne shall arise

beyond the stars of God

and be enthroned on the Northern sides

of that Great Mountain

far above the clouds

didst thou aspire to

but alas

this was not to be

so fallen thou art

as lightening to earth

having once angelic splendour

now the vilest abomination

an abode for maggots thou art

a shame

that once so beautiful

all is lost to become nothing

behold

lucifer

son of the morning

thine hour hast come

thou will be stripped of power

and be lowered into the very depths of hell

thy fate is worse than death

eternal suffering and damnation
