Soldier, Poet, King(original) |
There will come a soldier |
Who carries a mighty sword |
He will tear your city down, oh lei oh lai oh Lord |
Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord |
He will tear your city down, oh lei oh lai oh Lord |
There will come a poet |
Whose weapon is His word |
He will slay you with His tongue, oh lei oh lai oh Lord |
Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord |
He will slay you with His tongue, oh lei oh lai oh Lord |
There will come a ruler |
Whose brow is laid in thorn |
Smeared with oil like David’s boy, oh lei oh lai oh Lord |
Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord |
Smeared with oil like David’s boy, oh lei oh lai oh Lord |
Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord |
He will tear your city down, oh lei oh lai… oh |
Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh |
Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh |
Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh |
