Nothin' 4 Sufferin' Lyrics

Don't take it away

Don't take it away

Don't take it away from me

Don't take away the hazel eye

That Grandpa left behind him

When he sailed the bone-cold waters of his own uncharted sea

A token to watch over me

A token to watch over me

Don't take it away

Don't take it away,

Don't take it away from me

Don't take away the statues gold

That indicate a triumph over fabricated rivals and silly games to play

I am very serious

I am very serious

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today

To witness the acquisition of this man's soul

Guaranteed by this third party

To have his greatest disinterest at heart

These are the words and the words become flesh

When torn from the mouths of the equally oppressed

And this plague that the mind can invent

Steals our spirit with righteous intent

And the time comes for a warlike decree

Saying don't take it away from me

And don't take it away from me

And don't take it away

And if you do then I'll take the point of view

That the only way to stop you is to stomp you till you fail to move

Don't take it away

Don't take it away

Don't take it away from me

Don't take away the skulls and bones

That serve as a reminder

That the seeds of mortal thought arise to contemplate its pain

You don't get nothing for suffering

You don't get nothing for suffering

Scream bloody murder at the oozing flood of sores

And if you're not completely saddened

Then please come back for more

Did you think you'd get a lover by cutting off your ear

Don't expect a prize for being cripple of the year
