Buried way down deep beneath the Earth Lie the seeds of a harvest Planted by a mortal man Delivered by the hand of an angel Known to be dressed in black He stands by the side of his preacher Bent over with a broken back Crops doused with the sweat of his labour Just grab a bucket, because it's time to kick it And if you wake up, there's a bell just ring it Here lies a husband, he was a father adored Rests a man of great honour Who was sown by the reaper's gardener... Sown by the reaper's gardener Roots hath taken, life forsaken He wants your money, to rest your soul The gallows maker, his rent is high The tenants worried, the houses that he makes last to doomsday! Boxed wall to wall, at the Underworld Inn, you were read your last rights when you first checked in Said a man at the desk to get rich quick, just dig, dig, dig, with a spade or a pick Ploughed six feet down right through the ground, not an inch of light, or a grain of sound The taker took your ticket and he ripped it up, he said to you, you wasn't good enough! And the preacher shouted... Ashes to ashes and dust to dust Drowned in the Styx on your way to hell Every grave in the yard, had a story to tell Rests a man of great honour Who was sown by the reaper's gardener Sown by the reaper's gardener Come on blood brother Pay your toll motherfucker Hell ain't free for the damned you sucker Time of death was eleven twenty three By twelve fifteen the soil was dry Mother didn't have no time to cry By two nineteen the jury had decided That revenge was the motive that would have you bite it Laid to rest with a bullet in your chest Screamed a gardener with a gun just die! Die! Die!
