1
I stood in the water
2
In the middle month of winter
3
My camel skin was torture
4
I was in a state of nature
5
The wind, sir, it was wicked
6
I was so alone
7
Just as I predicted
8
My followers were gone
9
And I cried 'Mercy'
10
Have mercy upon me
11
And I got down on my knees
12
Thrown into a dungeon
13
Bread and water was my portion
14
Faith - my only weapon
15
To rest the devil's legion
16
The speak-hole would slide open
17
A viper's voice would plead
18
Thick with innuendo
19
Syphilis and Greed
20
And she cried 'Mercy'
21
Have mercy upon me
22
And I told her to get down on her knees
23
In a garden full of roses
24
My hands, tied behind me

27
The moon was turned toward me
28
Like a platter made of gold
29
My death, it almost bored me
30

31
And I cried 'Mercy'
32
I cried mercy on me
33
Cryind 'Mercy'
34
Have mercy on me
