To Kingdom Come

... to kingdom come

Sadly told his only son

"Just be careful what you do

It all comes back on you"

False witness spread the news

Somebody's gonna lose

Either she or me or you

Nothing we could do

So don't you say a word

Or reveal a thing you've learned

Time will tell you well

If you truly, truly fell

Tarred and feathered, yeah

Thistles and thorns

One or the other, he kindly warns

Now you look out the window

Tell me, what do you see?

I see a golden calf pointing back at me

I been sitting in here for so darn long

Waitin' for the end to come along

Holy roaster on the brink

I take a chance, swim or sink

False witness, cast an evil eye

Said I cannot tell a lie

... and saints don't bother me

I'm not alone you see

Don't you say a word

Or reveal a thing you've heard

Time will tell you well

If you truly, truly fell

Tarred and feathered, yeah

Thistles and thorns

One or the other, he kindly warns

Now you look out the window

Tell me what do you see?

I see a golden calf pointing back at me
