Primus - Tragedy's a'Comin' lyrics

Tragedy's a'comin' and I cannot step aside No I cannot step aside, there's no place to run and hide Tragedy's a'comin' and I cannot step aside No I cannot step aside, damn my ba*tard pride From the middle of nowhere he rides in all alone From the edges of somewhere he's grinding flesh and bone From the fringes of darkness he plays a steady hand And the tinges of poison come seepin' from his glands Tragedy's a'comin' and I cannot step aside No I cannot step aside, there's no place to run and hide Tragedy's a'comin' and I cannot step aside No I cannot step aside, damn my ba*tard pride If you ask him nicely perhaps he'll go away Just move politely and beg him not to stay With a mouth full of garbage he spits into your eye And an ear full of pity he'll teach ya' how to die Tragedy's a'comin' and I cannot step aside No I cannot step aside, there's no place to run and hide Tragedy's a'comin' and I cannot step aside No I cannot step aside, God damn my ba*tard pride She stands before us with Bible in her grasp When she opens her mouth up you can hear the wretched rasp Like a bucket of barnacles she's abrasive to the skin Like the ignorant ma**es that hope some day she'll win Tragedy's a'comin' and I cannot step aside No I cannot step aside, there's no place to run and hide Tragedy's a'comin' and I cannot step aside No I cannot step aside, God damn my ba*tard pride When tragedy's poundin' hard against your door And the cancer's eatin' at your inner core You're feelin' helpless, can't control the game Do you fade away softly or go out in a ball of flames, 'cause Tragedy's a'comin' and I cannot step aside No I cannot step aside, there's no place to run and hide Tragedy's a'comin' and I cannot step aside No I cannot step aside, God damn this ba*tard pride
