One came to steal my thunder
One, to set me on the cross
One tried to hold me under
One brought me nothing but loss
One tried to smoke me out at the stake
Tried to poison my wishing well
One fed me venom and sealed his fate
He had me sound his death knell
Don't bring me down
Down down down
Don't bring me down
You'll lose your crown
Bring me his head
Whatever the cost may be
Bring me his head
Don't try to steal my thunder
Don't try to put me on the cross
Don't you try to hold me under
I will bury you beneath the moss
Don't bring me down
Down, down, down
Don't bring me down
You'll lose your crown
Bring me his head
Whatever the cost may be
Bring me his head
The look in your dead eyes
Is that a look of surprise
That you died for me
Don't bring me down
Down, down, down
Don't bring me down
You'll lose your crown
Bring me his head
Whatever the cost may be
Bring me his head
Bring me his head
Whatever the cost of his death
Bring me his head
Bring me his head
Bring me his head
Bring me his head
