Lyrics (unofficial)
[rev. Sept. 7, 2013]
You were always the favorite of all of my servants
Tall as an oak when your forehead broke
Revealing a head full of serpents
Oh the silence where the smoke has blown
Ahh Goliath, let's get stoned
We're on our own
You were only saying yesterday that they'll never bring you down
But you fell like a bird when the little cat purred
Crashing on the holy ground
Without violence you were overthrown
Ahh Goliath, let's get stoned
We're on our own
You were almost too heavy to carry or to drag away
You lost your head like they always said you would
I hope you're feeling better today
Oh the silence when the bird has flown
Ahh Goliath, let's get stoned
Ahh the silence when the bird has flown
Ahh Goliath, let's get stoned
[Faint, drowned out lyrics start at 4:34]
[Backmasking at very end of track: "Can't find Australia."]
