Prophet

how come you prophet while i profit not

aren't we both eating from the same pot

you get the meat, while i get the bone

you drink the stew and leave me the stone

i see the bucket full, you say it empty

i see the bucket full, you say it empty

i see the bucket full

i want my food

how come you big while i am small?

im not so tiny to help you at all

you may be goliath, but i am the king

and at your head will i aim my sling

how come you prophet while i profit not

aren't we both eating from the same pot

you get the meat, while i get the bone

you drink the stew and leave me the stone

i see the bucket full, you say it empty

i see the bucket full, you say it empty

i see the bucket full

i want my food

how come you use the bucket to draw your fill

while we are waiting at the well still

time slows down, the days grow long

but i am still singing the same old song

how come you prophet while i profit not

aren't we both eating from the same pot

you get the meat, while i get the bone

you drink the stew and leave me the stone

i see the bucket full, you say it empty

i see the bucket full, you say it empty

i see the bucket full

i want my food
