Lyrics Protest the Hero

Protest the Hero

Termites

Jinn! Always the Jinn, always take one on the chin

The devil dogs and scorpions peel away and wear my skin

Smokeless flame, the common name

Less than the angels but more of the same

No paradise, no gre'thor will lay their claim

Whether the intentions are violent or just mundane

With the wind he disappeared

Confirming everything that I feared

The time passed is shown by the length of his beard

Salayman stands dead on his feet

Waiting for termites to resolve his conceit

In the mountains, in the seas,

In the air waits the disease

We are not gods, death comes to us all

But tonight I'm invincible; tomorrow I'll crawl

In the mountains, in the seas,

In the air waits the disease

The Jinn in this bottle, just don't let him drown

Next lesson you swallow, might be hard to keep down

Taste the penalty of the blazing fire

Taste the penalty, sing with the Devil's choir

Jinn! Always the Jinn!

Never thick and never thin

Thicker than blood, less than kin

The rattle trap night ends where it begins
