letra de monkey's paw - smalltown poets

Loading...

i held the monkey’s paw and put my wishes into play
to know the will of god, to show a motive for delay
i’m holding on to find myself just one more wish

i found a pot of gold or something shining anyway
and caught in my reflection a conviction held at bay
i crafted a cross to adorn my neck and finally earned my due respect
and then a jewel encrusted crown to complement my priestly gown

just big enough to weigh me down
and bring this temple to the ground
from inside out without a sound
i found a pot of gold today

i held the monkey’s paw
i held the monkey’s paw
i held the monkey’s paw

i held the monkey’s paw today and put my wishes into play
thanked heaven for the trophies but i still had h-ll to pay
so i brought my spoils to the altar’s edge heard you say obey instead
for all of my labors and best laid plans i’d only earned a reprimand

forevermore to understand
that dreams come true can kill a man
if never graced by sovereign hands
i held the monkey’s paw
