The Word (Reprise) - Black Francis

My baby’s lost

Up on the road

Up on the royal road

Up on the road

My baby’s lost

Without the secret code

The word

I said the word

The word was «truth»

And then the truth was blurred

My eyes have seen

A world of eyes

I wished I’d never heard

The word

Oh, have you heard?

The other word?

The word will stop his breath

Oh not too long

Don’t wait too long

I hear the word is «death»

The word
