Song language: English
His Word Is Not His Bond |
| He lives in a waste |
| void of culture and taste |
| his eye on a prize beyond |
| His every word |
| is in the right place |
| but his word is not his bond |
| His face his comely |
| his heart it bleeds |
| yet it’s but a mantle he has donned |
| Mark him only |
| by his deeds |
| for his word is not his bond |
| I’d love to take him |
| out of his room |
| and gently break him |
| I’d love to see |
| him |
| dance ! |
| His protege deals |
| in confusion and fog |
| Of power he is fond |
| Wheels within wheels |
| — like master, like dog |
| His word is not his bond |
| I’m trying to swim |
| but I’m caught in the shallows |
| and I sense that I’ve been conned |
| Deliver him |
| …to the gallows ! |
| His word is not his bond |
