Meat Puppets - Reward lyrics
[Meat Puppets - Reward lyrics]
We played for you and you did not dance
We wailed and you did not listen
And John came neither eating nor drinking
And you said he is possessed by a demon
The son of man came eating and drinking
And you said he is a friend of tax collectors
But what can I say about you?
You are like children in the marketplace
Shouting to your playmates
He who receives a prophet because he is a
Prophet will receive the prophets reward
He who receives a righteous man
Because he is a righteous man will receive a
Righteous man's reward

We wailed and you did not listen
And John came neither eating nor drinking
And you said he is possessed by a demon
The son of man came eating and drinking
And you said he is a friend of tax collectors
But what can I say about you?
You are like children in the marketplace
Shouting to your playmates
He who receives a prophet because he is a
Prophet will receive the prophets reward
He who receives a righteous man
Because he is a righteous man will receive a
Righteous man's reward
