[Cass McCombs - When the Bible Was Wrote lyrics]
Cast out of Eden, tricked by a snake
Brother killing brother
The mighty flood's wake
Glad I was not among those kept off that boat
Boy, they was much badder times
When the Bible was wrote
Then come slavery, then come curse
Then come a death-cloud for the first birth
Glad I was not living, I don't mean to gloat
Boy, they was much badder times
When the Bible was wrote
Deceived with a kiss Peter denies
The crowd calls to Pilate
Thorns cover his eyes
Jesus is crucified and I do quote
Boy, they was much badder times
When the Bible was wrote
Brother killing brother
The mighty flood's wake
Glad I was not among those kept off that boat
Boy, they was much badder times
When the Bible was wrote
Then come slavery, then come curse
Then come a death-cloud for the first birth
Glad I was not living, I don't mean to gloat
Boy, they was much badder times
When the Bible was wrote
Deceived with a kiss Peter denies
The crowd calls to Pilate
Thorns cover his eyes
Jesus is crucified and I do quote
Boy, they was much badder times
When the Bible was wrote
