Even Good Men
Temptation is no respecter of persons
High or low, rich or poor
The beast is always crouchin' at the doorway
Can a man drop hot coals into his lap
And think he won't get burned, escape the just return
What kind of foolishness is this?
What kind of foolishness is this?
David on the rooftop
Makin' his jaw drop
Shoulda been elsewhere
Stayin' clear of this affair
Nothing good comes from a poison well
Listen close to this tragic tale
Where even good men fail
Listen up if you are thinking you are safe
The moment the rest, the second you linger
You've sealed up your escape
David on the rooftop
Makin' his jaw drop
Shoulda been elsewhere
Stayin' clear of this affair
Nothing good comes from a poison well
Listen close to this tragic tale
Where even good men fail
Like David on the rooftop
Makin' his jaw drop
Shoulda been elsewhere
Stayin' clear of this affair
Nothing good comes from a poison well
David on the rooftop
Makin' his jaw drop
Shoulda been elsewhere
Stayin' clear of this affair
Nothing good comes from a poison well
Oh, like David on the rooftop
Makin' his jaw drop
Shoulda been elsewhere
Stayin' clear of this affair
Nothing good comes from a poison well
Listen close to this tragic tale
Where even good men fail
High or low, rich or poor
The beast is always crouchin' at the doorway
Can a man drop hot coals into his lap
And think he won't get burned, escape the just return
What kind of foolishness is this?
What kind of foolishness is this?
David on the rooftop
Makin' his jaw drop
Shoulda been elsewhere
Stayin' clear of this affair
Nothing good comes from a poison well
Listen close to this tragic tale
Where even good men fail
Listen up if you are thinking you are safe
The moment the rest, the second you linger
You've sealed up your escape
David on the rooftop
Makin' his jaw drop
Shoulda been elsewhere
Stayin' clear of this affair
Nothing good comes from a poison well
Listen close to this tragic tale
Where even good men fail
Like David on the rooftop
Makin' his jaw drop
Shoulda been elsewhere
Stayin' clear of this affair
Nothing good comes from a poison well
David on the rooftop
Makin' his jaw drop
Shoulda been elsewhere
Stayin' clear of this affair
Nothing good comes from a poison well
Oh, like David on the rooftop
Makin' his jaw drop
Shoulda been elsewhere
Stayin' clear of this affair
Nothing good comes from a poison well
Listen close to this tragic tale
Where even good men fail
