The Good Song

The Good Son
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
One more man gone
One more man gone
One more man
One more man gone
One more man gone
One more man
One more man gone
One more man gone
One more man
Gone
The good son walks into the field
He is a tiller,
and he has a tillers hands
But deep down in his heart now
He lays down his queer plans
Against his brother，
and against his family
Yet he worships his brother
And he worships his mother
But its his father,
he says, its an unfair man
The good son
The good son
The good son
The good son has sat and often wept
Beneath a malign star，
by which he goodsons kept
And the night-time in which hes wrapped
Speaks of good and speaks of evil
And he calls to his mother
And he calls to his father
But they are deaf in the shadows
Of his brothers truancy
The good son
The good son
The good son
The good son
And he curses his mother
And he curses his father
And he curses his virtue like an unclean thing
The good son
The good son
The good son
One more man gone
One more man gone
One more man
One more man gone
One more man gone
One more man
One more man gone
One more man gone
One more man
