Lyrics:
Under that apple suckling tree, oh yeah
Under that apple suckling tree, oh yeah
Underneath that tree
There's just gonna be you and me
Underneath that apple suckling tree
Now I wish to my soul I had seven years, uh-huh
Now I wish to my soul I had seven years, uh-huh
Hey, if I fall on your buryin' ground
Didn't catch your name, but he had a hound
Bad on down there on the avenue, oh yeah
Under that apple suckling tree, oh yeah

Underneath that tree
There's just gonna be you and me
Underneath that apple suckling tree, oh yeah

Didn't catch your name, but he had a hound
Bad on down there on the avenue, oh yeah

Minister, a word with you
Only take a minute, sir, so don't you screw
You no fight 'gainst the rum head
You no fight 'gainst the wine head
You no fight 'gainst the cigarette smoking
Yet you know, yet you know
These things give cancer
Yet you know, yet you know
These things give cancer
Rastaman know the truth
So you can't fool the youth
Rastaman know the truth
So you can't fool the youth
What was hidden from the wise and prudent
Shall reveal to the babe and suckling
What was hidden from the wise and prudent
Shall reveal to the babe and suckling
Tell me why do you fight against the collie man?
Satan is public enemy number one
Wanted dead or alive for all the crimes on this land
Killing God's children one by one
Casting affliction upon the innocent man
But as it were in the beginning
So shall it be in the end
God's righteous people must rule again
So you're bound to be captured in the end
For it's easier for a camel
To go through the eye of a needle
Than for wicked, wickedness
To enter the Kingdom of God, I say
Look what you've done to mankind
You planted the seed of crime in our children's mind
Even the suckling on the breast
Now becoming an awful test
For it's easier for a camel
To go through the eye of a needle
Than for wicked, wickedness
To enter the Kingdom of God, I say
Satan is public enemy number one
Wanted dead or alive for all the crimes on this land
Killing God's children one by one
Casting affliction on the innocent man
Beelzebub, I say
You
Weeping and wailing and mourning
And gnashing of teeth,
Ah ah,
Weeping and wailing and mourning
And gnashing of teeth, yeah
When the judges of judgment
Forward in front of I,
He and she will be judge
According to the work they have done.
Not even the suckling shall not escape, so
Weeping and wailing and mourning
And gnashing of teeth, yeah x2
Na na na,
When the earth has been cleansed,
And the righteous will be standing on the land,
So no matter what you do only good works
Shall see you through,
Weeping and wailing and mourning
And gnashing of teeth, yeah x2
Na na na
Yeah, weeping and wailing and mourning
And gnashing of teeth, yeah x2
When the judges of judgment
Forward in front of I,
He and she will be judge
According to the work they have done,
Not even the suckling shall not escape,
Weeping and wailing
So weeping and wailing
And gnashing of teeth, yeah x2
When the earth has been cleansed,
And the righteous shall stand on the land,
So no matter what you do, only good works
Shall see you through.
I am a shotgun rider for the San Jacinto line
The desert is my brother, my skin is cracked and dry
I was ridin' on a folk coach and everything was fine
'Til we took a shorter road to save some time
The bandits only fired once, they shot me in the chest
They may have wounded me but they'll never get the best
Of better men 'cause I'll ride again
I am a river gambler, I make a livin' dealin' cards
My clothes are smooth and honest, my heart is cold and hard
I was shufflin' for some delta boys on a boat for New Orleans
I was the greatest shark they'd ever seen
But the captain bumped a sandbar and an ace fell from my sleeve
They threw me overboard as I swore I didn't cheat
But I could swim and I'll ride again
We are heroes of the homeland, American remains
We live in many faces and answer many names
We will not be forgotten, we won't be left behind
Our memories live on in mortal minds
And poets pens, we'll ride again
I am a midwest farmer, I make a livin' off the land
I ride a John Deere tractor, I'm a liberated man
But the rain, it hasn't fallen
Since the middle of July
And if it don't come soon, my crops will die
The bankman says he likes me, but there's nothin' he can do
He tells me that he's comin', but the clouds are comin' too
He ain't my friend and I'll ride again
I am an American Indian, my tribe is Cherokee
My forefathers loved this land, they left it here for me
But the white man came with boats and trains and dirty factories
Poisoned my existence with his deeds
Nature is our mother, we are sucklings at her breast
And he who tries to beat her down will lose her to the rest
They'll never win, I'll ride again
We are heroes of the homeland, American remains
We live in many faces and answer many names
We will not be forgotten, we won't be left behind
Our memories live on in mortal minds
And poets pens, we'll ride again
Farmer Emmerich went into his barn
And found a cow suckling a serpent
And a brown ape clanking a heavy chain
Said Farmer Emmerich to the ape
"Never ask me to come into this barn again"
So long
Farewell
So long
Farmer Emmerich caught the serpent
And the brown ape in a cage
And took them into his house
He fed the snake a vat of milk
And when the ape rattled its chain
He tossed the ape a mouse
So long
Goodbye
Farewell
The villagers found out that Farmer Emmerich
Was nurturing a serpent
And descended upon his farm
All rabid in their blindness
They dragged the snake outside
Chopped it open with an axe
And the ground soaked
In the milk of human kindness
So long
Farewell
So long
But the brown ape escaped
And was heard to roam the ranges
Clanking its heavy chain
Down in the valley it sang to his friend
Whom he may never see again
Farmer Emmerich went into his barn
And found a cow suckling a serpent
And a brown ape clanking a heavy chain
Said Farmer Emmerich to the ape
"Never ask me to come into this barn again"
So long
Farewell
So long
Farmer Emmerich caught the serpent
And the brown ape in a cage
And took them into his house
He fed the snake a vat of milk
And when the ape rattled its chain
He tossed the ape a mouse
So long
Goodbye
Farewell
The villagers found out that Farmer Emmerich
Was nurturing a serpent
And descended upon his farm
All rabid in their blindness
They dragged the snake outside
Chopped it open with an axe
And the ground soaked
In the milk of human kindness
So long
Farewell
So long
But the brown ape escaped
And was heard to roam the ranges
Clanking its heavy chain
Down in the valley it sang to his friend
Whom he may never see again
I was asleep with both eyes open
Dream freeze sprinklers in the sun
Beer soaked mansions block the sky,
Dingos howl and white flags fly
The future's put on hold and you're still young
But I know seeing is believing
I can't believe what I'm seeing
I was crying with both eyes open
But now all is quiet on drip feed lottery night
Curse the dugong, free the jet ski,
Suckling babies at the Eski
Invite the looters back the price is right.
Strike a pose
Imagining love and ecstatic applause
Suckling big parts
You are on task
Strike a vein so we can see
If it leaves some kind of mark
No, its too dark
It's dark
Strike a tone for shadowing
Things that were meant to come true
Darker than blue
Older than you
Strike a match so I can see
If I've been down here before
Where is the floor?
Minister, a word with you
Only take a minute, sir, so don't you screw
You no fight 'gainst the rum head
You no fight 'gainst the wine head
You no fight 'gainst the cigarette smoking
Yet you know, yet you know
These things give cancer
Yet you know, yet you know
These things give cancer
Rastaman know the truth
So you can't fool the youth
Rastaman know the truth
So you can't fool the youth
What was hidden from the wise and prudent
Shall reveal to the babe and suckling
What was hidden from the wise and prudent
Shall reveal to the babe and suckling
Tell me why do you fight against the collie man?
All day in my mind
I replay the second time we chimed
So sweet what a treat sensually
Skin on skin is swingingly swell fat treasures
Don't compare to our pleasures
Kissing and suckling the boots, come unbuckling
Enter sexual altered states
No sleep, um, we're staying awake
The music connects us
The rubber protects us
And what the neighbors think, just doesn't effect us
Check my spot and dig my swirl, I'm a liberated girl
I need your loving
I want your love
I'll be your friend
I'll be your lover
Against me your body's pressed
I want to hug and kiss you and all the rest
Forget your troubles, ills and aches
And like an earthquake our body shakes
Turn up the frogger bass and enter sexual altered state
Take off your shirt, I'll take off my bra
A rub a dub lovin', until you say, ahh
Keep holding on, until you say, ahh
You're smiles as big as the Brooklyn Bridge
You rock me like no one ever did
Live and let living, tripping not slipping
Chewing on a chicklet
Make me want to knee dip, let me roll my full hips
Rolling Philly's acting silly, the hippy spliffy
Made you lick your lippy
Our love a dub rubbin' is king size trippy
Keep holding on, until you say, ahh
I'm still suckling at the teat of the golden goat but I'm moaning. Do I complain?
Even though this golden goat is encouraging, I find the space to act pale
Suckling at the teat of the golden goat
Suckling at the teat of the golden goat
Suckling at the teat of the golden goat
Suckling at the teat of the golden goat
Suckling at the teat of the golden goat
Suckling at the teat of the golden goat
Suckling at the teat of the golden goat
Suckling at the teat of the golden goat
Suckling at the teat of the golden goat
Suckling at the teat of the golden goat

Beelzebub, I say
You
I ain't no goddam foster home.
You're a weakling.
You're a suckling lamb.
You're not so tough.
You're just a man.
You're a weak thing.
Just a little lamb.
You're not so tough.
There are snakeskin stealers seething
In the afterlife
Christian in the advent house
You confess the incarnation with
The breast turned out
Have you seen the Christ the king
(Woman, have you lost your kind?)
Suckling nurseries in snakeskin in
The armored seat?
(With the breast turned out)
Christian, put away your woes
(Woman, have you lost your kind?)
Nine years old in a Pokemon fronted t-shirt
All he wanted was a seat with the kids on the yellow bus
The whispers in the corridors wouldn't go away
A logical conclusion made easy for him to say
He told the truth
Lost on a lonely road
Walking the quiet lane to save his mothers pain
Cruelly a child provoke d
Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings never named
Brave Jamel
Meanwhile an old man arrives on a rainy Ireland
Says sorry for the wrongs of his brothers in the past
Answers to this problem sought, so he paused a while
Turning to his book he claims could have "cured" this child
It's you who's sick
Lost on a lonely road
Trapped in a dead end street to save his mothers pain
Cruelly a child provoked
Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings never named
Brave Jamel
Brave Jamel
A child provoked so cruelly for his sins
Brave Jamel
From the mouths of babes and sucklings
From the mouths of babes and sucklings
It's you who needs help
It's you who needs help
In caustic butchery I parent my dominion
In the food chain I create the missing link
Cold temerity confects this splintered for age
Infantile corruption taken to the brink
Making hash of the spumous crubescent
All natural compassion removed
The newly fully developed boiled as sprouted fodder
Martilinear murder, cordon bleu
As salubrious pet food
Human midden is consumed
Not one to mince my words
But now I love to see those siblings churned
In tins they are reared
Ghastly I slake
Bestial appetites to sate
As flesh and steel I mate
To fill the lower species' plate
Desparental, primparal goods oozing
The bawling, squabbling denied the suckling teat
Sentient bloodletting sprains the sporulate
Makes a choice chimerical treat
Rheological, twisted nursery chymes
The fluxing of the defleshed
Paedophilosophical, carnage knowledge
As the illegitimeat to the domesticated is fed
So as you breed
They will bleed
Contumely calorie count
Ebullient death toll mounts
Higher and higher
Despumation the midden, the desipient I segment
Pertaining vitality, their dispatch I cement
Served out for minion in their feeding trough
Dense dark forest dismal fog
A spectral force perverts these woods
Flight prevails frantic escape
The unearthly horrors at each turn they wait
Wandering roots they creak and move
Slithering toward what mortal life intrudes
Terrified eyes opened wide
Ensnare her flailing limbs to the earth they are tightly tied
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
By the evil dead to ribbons ripped and torn
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
Pierced from within her child is skewered unborn
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
Twisted in halves in this gruesome tug-of-war
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
Flora possessed suckling the gore
Untamed kudzu green cocoon
Trapped inside her flesh their food
Death prevails gnarled roots entwine
Syphon the marrows from her splintered spine
Animate trees shuffle their roots
Gathering around this late night rendezvous
Murderous orgy in full bloom
Her screams they cut the fog this night
On sheer terror the seedlings thrive
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
Behold the wrath of the Necronomicon
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
Lancing her womb the child inside is gorged
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
Broken in two entwined within the growth
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
Necrotized demonic spores
You brought this all unto yourselves
Should not have tampered with this hell
Opening the book your last mistake
These haunted woods shall be thine grave
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
By the evil dead to ribbons ripped and torn
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
Pierced from within her child is skewered unborn
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
Twisted in halves in this gruesome tug-of-war
Raped in hatred by vines of thorn
Flora possessed suckling the gore
No other love like mother love
God above send da woman yah fi
Give mi bag a love
Just a kiss and a hug mek mi heart explode
Malatov, our feeling deeper than a sub
Mama Africa yuh a mi king, yuh a mi queen to
As a suckling pon yo boozam mi cling to
As a big man yeh mi buy her a house to
Mi suppose to
You boss me around, you boss me around
You make me feel like you've been with every man in town
You suck my love like a hungry honey-bee
Eats honey, and store it in your love-suckling-tree
We ate our dinners naked, and we spent our days in bed
We talked a bit of life but mostly bout the lovers that you'd met
When the homeless asked for money you just took it from my purse
You drained all my savings but explained our lives could be much worse
You boss me around, you boss me around
You make me feel like you've been with every man in town
You suck my love like a hungry honey-bee
Eats honey, and store it in your love-suckling-tree
I always had to take you to the Spanish tapas bar
Where the waiter calls you handsome and knows exactly who you are
He served you precious Cavas and expensive Spanish wine
And lined up the empty bottles and said they were mine
You boss me around, you boss me around
You make me feel like you've been with every man in town
You suck my love like a hungry honey-bee
Eats honey, and store it in your love-suckling-tree
You came home at dawn and asked me where I'd been
You smelled like Karl Lagerfeld and heavy Red Hood gin
I said: I've been up all night, waiting for you, dear
You said that I just block the bed when you need sweet loving here
You boss me around, you boss me around
You make me feel like you've been with every man in town
You suck my love like a hungry honey-bee
Eats honey, and store it in your love-suckling-tree
You changed my life, but I didn't get your strategy
You said: I love you madly but hate diversity
I kissed you as you told me with tenderness and depth
While you just popped my pimples and smoked another cigarette
You boss me around, you boss me around
You make me feel like you've been with every man in town
You suck my love like a hungry honey-bee
Eats honey, and store it in your love-suckling-tree
You say we're through, you can't stand me anymore
You wonder in the first line what on Earth you took me for
I don't pass the test of endurance, when you rate me over-all
When you hate me, I'm too big, when you want me, I'm too small
You boss me around, you boss me around
You make me feel like you've been with every man in town
You suck my love like a hungry honey-bee
Eats honey, and store it in your love-suckling-tree
You can keep all my loving, I don't want it back
You can spend it as you wish to and keep your tension slack
But if you try to give it to someone other than yourself
You'll find it's stuck at the bottom of your loving well
You boss me around, you boss me around
You make me feel like you've been with every man in town
You suck my love like a hungry honey-bee
Eats honey, and store it in your love-suckling-tree
