House of Simon Songtext
von Gomorran

The wizard will not be greeted
Disrespect the divine power
Do not waste the ointment
Do not touch the heretic
Charmed by the sinner whore
Their presence is not welcome here

Cursed by the wizard
Damned with leprosy
Cursed by the wizard
Black magic prophecy

Give a helping hand
To the farisean leper

But his black magic is strong
With an evil gaze
He inflicts vile demons
Into the vessel


Cursed by the wizard
Damned with leprosy
Cursed by the wizard
Black magic prophecy

Give a helping hand
To the farisean leper
Corporal
Debt to the keeper of the underworld

Asclepiades with a long entangled beard
Tends to his bacterial lesions
Necrotic disfigured skin peels
To the cold rubble masonry
Screams of agony echo
In the dusty fog on the streets of Galilee
There is no absolution
For this contemptible sinner

For we are pious men
To obey what has been told
For we are virtuous men
To live honest and bold


Messengers of faith
We will not be of the three
To disobey chapters of Mishnah
Resurrection must be

Impure morbid men
Crumbling to the ground
Smitten by the curse
No more limbs bound

Give a helping hand
To the farisean leper
Corporal
Debt to the keeper of the underworld
