Kerosene

like an angel bounces off heavens gate

she fell down on her knees and cried

this is an ungodly mistake

she never thought shed ever be denied

and father's eyes went to them all

and all her sisters stare you down

but she's the only one who got her mother's smile

lately you havent seen much of it around

to live on this earth you need two hands

one to crush the weeds that steal your crops

and one to crush your fellow man

and a woman to tell you when to stop

you take the road and make a river

all you needed was some rain

you drift north and drag the darkness

leave behind some kerosene

so she can burn down your fields

and brand the cattle with her smile

and send a smoke signal to the stars

ready to plant some fertile soil
