[00:12.75]Naked on the toilet with a toothbrush in his mouth,
[00:16.41]When he suddenly acquired an overwhelming sense of doubt.
[00:20.37]Every single piece of baggage he'd been holding on his back,
[00:24.24]Was beginning to dig dig dig in and his back began began to crack.
[00:28.47]And when he finally broke up, he found that he'd been breaking down.
[00:32.43]Little body, little soul, little shrapnel on the ground
[00:36.30]So he started to examine from the clumsy to the cute,
[00:40.23]From the fat, fat cat to the destitute
[00:44.25]From the chat, fat cat to the mute
[00:47.58]Oh earthly pleasure ring out
[00:52.02]From the rigors of this road
[00:55.77]Earthly pleasure ring out
[01:00.03]From the caverns of my soul
[01:04.44]Then suddenly he found themselves in 1822
[01:08.43]And he was in another body, in a heavy sort of suit
[01:12.18]He was surrounded but he'd started making plans to make a run
[01:16.38]When they called to him, son, cock your gun
[01:20.13]And so he did as all the others had already done
[01:24.06]He put his finger on the trigger and he gave 'em some
[01:28.08]And though he don't like to admit it, it was sensual and pure
[01:32.25]And he changed that day though he can't be sure
[01:36.18]If it's the sickness or the cure.
[01:41.40]Oh earthly pleasure ring out
[01:48.90]From the rigors of this road
[01:51.57]Earthly pleasure ring out
[01:52.05]From the caverns of my soul
[01:56.28]So there he was in front of her divine simplicity
[02:00.30]And she was speaking Esperanto and drinking ginger tea
[02:04.29]As she inquired about the reason for his visit here today
[02:08.10]Well he just said, no reason, and I really shouldn't stay.
[02:12.12]And so he thought that she would think that he was some kind of freak
[02:16.11]And that he'd go back to the grind, and that he wouldn't last a week
[02:20.25]But she didn't, she just sighed and added softly with a smile
[02:24.66]Sit down dear child, what's on your mind?
[02:28.26]And so he frantically described to her, the kingdom at her feet
[02:32.22]As she continued with her manicure and poured another tea
[02:36.36]As he recounted tales of misery and suffering and pain
[02:40.47]She was yawning at the ceiling, so we had to up his game
[02:44.28]The only thing your children cherish is to move up the ranks
[02:48.18]Lucifer is in our courts, Beelzebub is in our banks
[02:52.26]And if you don't cooperate with us, we'll hang you 'til you're dead
[02:56.43]So she granted him a wish, and let him write it on her head
[03:00.33]And when he read it back to her, this is all it said
[03:04.11]Earthly pleasure ring out
[03:04.89]From the rigors of this road
[03:15.60]Earthly pleasure ring out
[03:16.08]From the caverns of my soul
[03:19.92]Now I truly understand
[03:24.54]But I don't understand a thing
[03:26.49]So let this earthly pleasure sing
[03:29.10]Earthly pleasure
