Bad Debt

Death, don't bother me
I'm not sure I'm ready
Take your whip a bit farther down the line
You're all over me
And I'm not even coming
I'm gonna live for a long, long time

The old master sees
An old beast like me
Through those city, those city gates
I got a little joy
From the little stable boy
But my rider was never very kind

[Chorus]
And I earned my pay just like you did
Hangman wait just a little while
And I served Babylon with the bit on my tongue
And the master, faster, spurred me on
And the master, faster, spurred me on

'Where to?'
'I don't know'
Oh you shot me with an arrow
My bad debt wouldn't stay behind
I'm not ashamed of what I've done
Oh, a pony will run
I was gonna run for a long, long time

[Chorus]
And I earn my pay just like you did
Hangman wait just a little while
And I served Babylon with the bit on my tongue
And the master, faster, spurred me on
And the master, faster, spurred me on
