Lyrics

In a public house in Deptford He lies dead upon the floor The blood streams down his lovely face His eyes, which saw so clearly, shine no more Now I did love this godless youth And, oh, he loved me well Whose wit, they say, was lent by God Whose vices sent from hell But there is no God, just gelded priests Who keep all men in awe No god of love, just cruel games To play upon the poor In a public house in Deptford He lies dead upon the floor The blood streams down his lovely face His eyes, which saw so clearly, shine no more
