Underneath the Ground

[Verse 1] That's enough, my man, it's time to clap our hands Call the papers up tomorrow, say we did the best we can Cause the doctors in the hospital and the poet just laid down There's one good man I know, he can't talk right now [Bridge] I’d like to hear what you’d say to me If I was bulletproof and free again Or what you’d shout if I was dead in the ground And buried under another name [Chorus] What would you talk about if I loved her now? Tell my sins to God outloud Would you cry, cry cause I was gone Would you spit and hiss and curse my name? And embarrass me to the other graves? Would you lay right down with me underneath the ground? [Interlude] [Verse 2] Now who you think I am? Worse than all the rest That's what I mean now, just like no one said Did anybody see that there's a crack right down my head? Mama how they’ll cheer for us, while the blood drips down our legs [Bridge] I’d like to know if you could see through the soul like I could see to your soul back then And reach your hands through all the hurt and defenses, would you still try if you knew I was gone? [Chorus] [Interlude] [Chorus]
