Lyrics Malediction - The Waterboys

I am walking in the last rays of the setting sun
Whistling a hangman's tune with head held high swinging my gun
I say this little boy is angry
I say this little boy is mad
This little boy comes to destroy
Cold eyed, grim faced, in swathes of vengeance clawed
And the black cock crows
And a dead wind blows
In my wake are seven women who tried to steal my song
In my belly six wild wolves curse and howl from their foul home
I say no earthly will may stop me
I say no earthly will may try
No earthly will may halt the spill of blood from wounds
And tears from grieving eyes
And the black cock crows
And a dead wind blows
Below me burn the city lights in fires of pearls and jewels
I'm climbing down the city walls unseen
Unfast the sentries' master fools
I say all pleasantries are over
I say all pleasantries are past
My enemies, you pimps and thieves
Prepare to meet your nemesis at last
And the black cock crows
And the dead wind blows
