The Pimp And The Priest de The Dear Hunter

(Take me to the river)
The pimp and the priest pounce on quickened cat's feet
For the freshest young blood in sin's for the feast.
The book will then brew what the sinful commit;
while the pimp and the priest prey quietly where the precious sinners sit.

Confessal confess,
In the chapel, the brothel, where we suffocate stress.
We've got the time if you've got the scratch (don't give your sins while she screams on her back).

Faster, save me! (I've since remained hostage)
Harder I can't breath!

Now the priest and the pimp are already equipped
With an enigmatic frontage post (something) we'll come walking.
So we corner our pace and make quick for the door, to be prodded and passed
From the bed to the floor.

Confessal confess,
In the chapel, the brothel, where we suffocate stress.
We've got the time if you've got the scratch (don't cure your sins while she screams on her back).

Take me to the river (repeat x2)

Faster, save me! (I?ve since remained hostage)
Harder I can't breath!

Sing softly, sing me to the lake.
Sing softly, bring me to the lake.

Faster, save me! (I've since remained hostage)
Harder I can't breath!

Sing softly, sing me to the lake.
Sing softly, bring me to the lake
