Selfies In Aleppo

Lyrics

On a ruinous wall I came upon a poster
 dating from the previous year
 and announcing that 'six handsome bulls' would be killed
 in the area on such and such a date.
 How forlorn its faded colors looked.
 Where were the handsome bulls and the handsome bull-fighters now?
 It appeared that even in Barcelona there were hardly any bullfights nowadays
 For some reason all the best matadors were Fascists
 For behold
 Forsaken from thee
 Flowered bloom
 A chance yet to be
 For the beast
 Made from the same stone
 Filthy boots for lick
 I'm a jealous man
 Shall we beg
 For the leap of faith
 Is the razor blade
 Formed to lines
 'The worn livery
 Choose a night-mare
 Sip from the bleed
 Jealous God
 Commander and chief
 For the policeman and his property
 Shall we pay
 For the air to breath
 All apologies
 Shall we beg
 Down on our knees
 7 letters written of seven sins 3 beasts:
 The dragon the worm and
 The pit
 Seven candles burn seven mountain tops
 Kissed by the great whore of Babylon
 Six handsome bulls
 Shall we beg
 For the leap of faith
 Is the razor blade
 Shall we lay down, play dead
 Down on our knees
 Leap of faith
 Is the razor blade
 Down on our knees
 7 letters written of seven sins 3 beasts:
 The dragon the worm and
 The pit
 Seven candles burn seven mountain tops
 Kissed by the great whore of Babylon
 Six handsome bulls
