Everything Everything - Spring / Sun / Winter / Dread lyrics

A holy man with a pale, yellow liver
Crossed my palm on the banks of the river
On the banks of the river

The hands loom heavy with only an hour to go
I hold my breath but the seekers will find me
Priest and pauper, the leper, uh
Can't change his spots, the King
Knows, and I know it, eh
And everybody knows

Spring, sun, winter, dread
I don't want to get older (No way, no way)
Spring, sun, winter, dread
I don't want to get older (No way, no way)

Are those my people
Or are they barbarians all?
I need a shoulder to talk to about it
Swing the hammer, the fragments, eh
A skull exploded on you, on all you
And showers on the infant's bed

Spring, sun, winter, dread
I don't want to get older (No way, no way)
Spring, sun, winter, dread
I don't want to get older (No way, no way)
Spring, sun, winter, dread
I don't want to get older (No way, no way)
Spring, sun, winter, dread
I don't want to get older (No way, no way)

You are a thief and a murderer too
Stole the face that you wear
From a craven baboon
’Cause you did it to her
And you did it to him
And you did it before and you'll do it again
I know it you are a thief and a murderer too
Stole the face that you wear
From a craven baboon
’Cause you did it to her
And you did it to him
And you did it before and you'll do it again
I know it you are a thief and a murderer too
Stole the face that you wear
From a craven baboon
’Cause you did it to her
And you did it to him
And you did it before and you'll do it again
I saw it you are a thief and a murderer too
Stole the face that you wear
From a craven baboon
’Cause you did it to her
And you did it to him
And you did it before and you'll do it again
I know it you are a thief and a murderer too
Stole the face that you wear
From a craven baboon
’Cause you did it to her
And you did it to him
And you did it before and you'll do it again
I know it you are a thief and a murderer too
Stole the face that you wear
From a craven baboon
’Cause you did it to her
And you did it to him
And you did it before and you'll do it again
