Confessional (give Me Sodomy Or Give Me Death) Lyrics & Chords By Diamanda Galás
In that house
there is no time for Compassion,
there is only time for Confession
and on his dying bed they asked him:
Do you confess? Do you confess?
And on his dying bed the dirty angels
flying over him like buzzards asked him,
Do you confess? Do you confess?
shshshshsh
It's so cold
It's so cold
shshshshs
It's so cold
It's so cold
Do you confess?
Do you confess?
Who are you?
Who are you?
Do you confess?
Do you confess?
Yes, I confess
Yes, I confess
When they laugh at the trial of the innocent
Yes, I confess
Let them laugh at the trial of the innocent
Swing swing
Let them laugh at the trial of the innocent
saying, "Here's the rope
and there's the ladder,"
Coming for to carry me home.
Yes, I confess
[tongues]
Yes, I confess
angels! angels!
[tongues]
Yes, I confess
Yes, I confess
Yes, I confess:
Give me sodomy or give me death!
