| We had this fine old place in the country
|
| Where we grew melancholy on the lawn
|
| Torn between our Sunday worlds
|
| We had girl there who rode a motorcycle
|
| Moving at ninety miles an hour
|
| Towering six feet black
|
| Yes we all used to wonder what was happening
|
| When we danced half naked in the night
|
| Right or wrong we carried on
|
| The sons of Cain yeah ooh
|
| The sons of Cain yeah ooh
|
| The sons of Cain
|
| Are Abel
|
| We never had such a thing as conversation
|
| We used to stare so blindly caring not
|
| What was eating at our brains
|
| There is a torchlight face I will remember
|
| That even I couldn’t pass off as a joke
|
| Broken token drowning slow
|
| We had a half starved poet writing nothing
|
| He used to blurt something out
|
| Then scratch his head
|
| Felt the sickness ruefully
|
| The sons of Cain yeah ooh
|
| The sons of Cain and only ooh
|
| The sons of Cain
|
| Are Abel
|
| As I was walking slowly through the lovely garden
|
| And someone’s sick homosexual half world
|
| Twirled around it maybe love
|
| And then when God made summer into autumn
|
| Just like the leaves everyone began to fall
|
| All, was empty I left too
|
| The sons of Cain yeah ooh
|
| The sons of Cain and only ooh
|
| The sons of Cain
|
| Are Abel
|
| The sons of Cain yeah ooh
|
| The sons of Cain and only ooh
|
| The sons of Cain
|
| Are Abel |
