a.d. penedo, marshall pailet - the second in command lyrics
[nelson]
i appeal to the second in command! alert the guards!
[guards]
oooohh… he cometh
oooohh… he cometh
the second in command…
[the second in command]
speak my son, speak my son
speak my son – unload your cares and burdens
[nelson]
your bureaucracy, have i ever dared not bow to those above me?
ever dared refuse to honor their commandments
but here i have no option
i sink to my knees as the thought of
what we doeth weakens me
please!
just this once!
reconsider the road we choose!
we’ll have blood on our hands
remorse in our souls. read through my plea!
you must read through it
please
[guards]
oh oh oh he thinketh
oh oh oh he thinketh
oh oh oh he thinketh
the second in command…
[the second in command]
haven’t we hit the brakes of the train, my son
you alone said that we should run?
best beware of the perilous path you tread, my son
[nelson]
a path they shut me out of
[the second in command]
we should void the decree handed down, my son
all because those you fought have won?
[nelson]
a decree that isn’t valid!
[the second in command]
don’t you know there are times what goes down is preordained by a higher power?
[nelson]
your bureaucracy –
i would never dare not
bow to those above me –
never dare refuse to honor
their commandments
but they defiled the system
[the second in command]
the system changed
[nelson]
the system broke. the rung below me spoke to the rung above me, and i fell off completely
[the second in command]
the system works in mysterious ways! that will be all, my son
[nelson]
rules are not to pick and choose
which to keep and which to lose
which ones, “hey, why not abuse?”
but this one won’t just wreck our day
ruin our weekend, dock our pay
this time, sir, there’s h-ll to pay
the rules we break
will extract their take
we all harvest what we sow
