Lyrics The Word (Reprise) - Black Francis

The Word (Reprise)

My baby’s lost
Up on the road
Up on the royal road
Up on the road
My baby’s lost
Without the secret code
The word
I said the word
The word was «truth»
And then the truth was blurred
My eyes have seen
A world of eyes
I wished I’d never heard
The word
Oh, have you heard?
The other word?
The word will stop his breath
Oh not too long
Don’t wait too long
I hear the word is «death»
The word
