What Fools People Are(feat. David Burt)-Eric Woolfson

A crime has been committed
I call for justice in the name of the Lord
The truth has been subverted
The instigator must be put to the sword
For the God that we serve is a vengeful God
Let me remind you of that!
As for the perpetrator
I will expose him as a cheat and a fraud
For every word he's uttered
[00:28]Is a deception for an earthly reward
Will he laugh to himself to his dying day
With his last breath will he smile and say...
What fools people are!
[00:44]What fools people are!
What fools…
People are!
Now God in all His wisdom
Has chosen my voice to deliver His words
]The lies of all blasphemers
Will drown in silence, the truth will be heard
And the Arm of the Lord wields a mighty sword
I can assure you of that!
And as for Poe the Sinner
[01:09]I now will judge him by the faith I hold dear
And after deep reflection
[01:15]I find him GUILTY, my conscious is clear
[01:19]Could his black words be read any other way?
Sometimes I sigh to myself and say...
[01:25]What fools people are
What fools people are
[01:29]What fools…
[01:31]People are!
(Reynolds! Reynolds!)
Say when we joined the army
That he deserted, people don't like a rat
[01:43]At university
Thrown out for cheating, they'll all believe that!
If I alter a line, then his poem won't rhyme
[01:52]Father, forgive me my sins!
[01:55]And now he stands convicted
I will commit him to the care of the Lord
[02:01]Forsaken! Forgotten!
A veil of silence, his eternal reward!
Under a dark, everlasting cloud
Sometimes it's hard not to shout out loud
What fools people are!
[02:15]What fools people are!
[02:18]What blissfully ignorant fools…
People are!
And if the sheep have a mind to stray
I have to show them the righteous way...
What fools people are!
[02:39]What fools people are!
[02:42]What ignorant, bloody fools...
People are!
