Abel and Cain |
| Eat, sleep and drink |
| God smiles on you contentedly |
| (Race of Cain) |
| In filth and stink grovel |
| And die wretchedly |
| (Race of Abel) |
| Your sacrifice smells good |
| To an angel’s nose |
| (Race of Cain) |
| What’s the price |
| Of your torment and woes? |
| (Race of Abel) |
| Watch your seeds sprout |
| Your cattle grow fat |
| (Race of Cain) |
| Your guts plead |
| For hunger howls like a wild cat! |
| (Race of Abel) |
| Warm your insides |
| At the patriarchal fire |
| (Race of Cain) |
| In your dank hides poor jackals |
| Trembling and dire |
| (Race of Abel) |
| Make love and spawn |
| For your gold will likewise delight |
| (Race of Cain) |
| When your hearts burn |
| Watch out for such appetites |
| (Race of Abel) |
| Grow and graze |
| Devour the world like the pest |
| (Race of Cain) |
| Along rough ways |
| Drag your families in distress |
| (Race of Abel) |
| Your foul carcass |
| Will manure the reeking ground |
| (Race of Cain) |
| Up off your arse |
| Your work is once again found |
| (Race of Abel) |
| Here’s your shame |
| The fire is vanquished by the rod |
| (Race of Cain) |
| Take up your claim |
| Out of the heavens fling God! |
