Tragedy's a'Comin'

"Tragedy's A' Comin'"
 Tragedy's A' Comin'
 And I cannot step aside
 No I cannot step aside
 There's no place to run and hide
 Tragedy's A' Comin'
 And I cannot step aside
 No I cannot step aside
 Damn my bastard pride
 From the middle of nowhere
 He rides it all alone
 From the edges of somewhere
 He's grindin' flesh and bone
 From the fringes of darkness
 He breathes a steady hand
 And the tinges of poison
 Come seeping from his glands
 Tragedy's A' Comin'
 And I cannot step aside
 No I cannot step aside
 There's no place to run and hide
 Tragedy's A' Comin'
 And I cannot step aside
 No I cannot step aside
 Damn my bastard pride
 If you ask him nicely
 Perhaps he'll go away
 Just move politely
 And beg him not to stay
 With a mouth full of garbage
 He spits into your eye
 And an ear full of pity
 He'll teach you how to die
 Tragedy's A' Comin'
 And I cannot step aside
 No I cannot step aside
 There's no place to run and hide
 Tragedy's A' Comin'
 And I cannot step aside
 No I cannot step aside
 Damn my bastard pride
 She stands before us
 With a Bible in her grasp
 When she opens her mouth up
 You can hear the wretched rasp
 Like a bucket of barnacles
 She's abrasive to the skin
 Like the ignorant masses
 That hope someday she'll win
 Tragedy's A' Comin'
 And I cannot step aside
 No I cannot step aside
 There's no place to run and hide
 Tragedy's A' Comin'
 And I cannot step aside
 No I cannot step aside
 Damn my bastard pride
 Tragedy's poundin'
 Hard against your door
 And the cancer's eating
 At your inner core
 And you're feeling helpless
 Can't control the game
 Do you fade away softly
 Or go out in a ball of flames cause
 Tragedy's A' Comin'
 And I cannot step aside
 No I cannot step aside
 There's no place to run and hide
 Tragedy's A' Comin'
 And I cannot step aside
 No I cannot step aside
 Damn this bastard pride
