Deed Is Done


No Official Lyrics  

February 8, 1996

Wharton Center for Performing Arts (Michigan State University)
East Lansing, MI


alternate lyrics

Eh God
Oh here I am
Knelt on my knees
As you understand
Oh and God
I’ve got a prayer
And I prayed aloud
That you can hear
Oh why would you
A forgiving one
[???] good
From far beyond
Oh little girl
Oh with cancer eating
Steal her young soul
Her mind is fleeting
Oh but the thing is done
The girl yellow and weeping
It's no fun
And now it's steep God
Steep God
But you know
You’re time is gone
Oh and my faith is done
And the deed is done
And the girl is gone
And the deed is done
And the girl is gone
And the deed is done
[sctting]

[scatting]
Oh from the ashes
Of man's hate
Comes soul coughing
Leading away
Yeah from the ashes
Of man's disgrace
Comes my soul coughing
Leading away
Oh well you may find your religion
You may find your passion
But it’s done
The little girl is gone
Well explain your religion
You can explain your passion
For God
Oh my girl is gone
Little girl is gone
Stolen from
[wailing]
[scatting]
