The Veils - Bullfighter (Hand of God)

[Verse 1]
Well now, bullfighter stares right into the sun
One man's desires, ain't battles easily won?
Ain't battles easily won? Ain't battles easily won?

[Verse 2]
Sharpens a blunt knife with marble hung in a [rag ?]
Kisses his new wife and his fat mother goodbye
And his half-blind brother goodbye, and his sad-eyed sister goodbye

[Verse 3]
Then, like a hurricane, he comes on hard and fast
Stiff as the gold wraith, then reels around the back
Then reels around the back, then reels around the back
Then reels around the back
[Chorus]
Stands there in ecstasy, blood rising to his knees
Sturdy as the hand of God
Oh, Lord (Oh, Lord)
Oh, Lord
Woo!

[Verse 4]
Well now, bullfighter, "Hail Mary"s many and [?]
Love, don't be frightened, as he bangs his indefatigable drum
His indefatigable drum, his indefatigable drum
His indefatigable drum

[Verse 5]
He don't even know his name, no, he shed that long ago
Now he's twirling in flames, and his body is all aglow
And his body is all aglow, and his body is all aglow

[Chorus]
Stands there in ecstasy, blood rising to his knees
Heavy as the hand of God
Oh, Lord (Oh, Lord)
Oh, Lord
He stands there in ecstasy, blood rising to his knees
Sturdy as the hand of God
Oh, Lord (Oh, Lord)
Oh, Lord
Woo!
