The leather soles go shuffling in,
Stinking of smoke and ten cent gin.
Now who will toast our noble host that has this morning given up the ghost?
The wooden coffer hand to hand.
Kind words are offered, silent prayers.
But she is satisfied the most while stabbing madly at the roast.
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve.
The sons of Cain receive no reprieve.
The creditor rides with his men.
The death of debtors he won't forgive.
They repossess his silver eyes, now in the potter's field he lies.
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve.
The sons of Cain receive no reprieve.
Waiting for a dead man's shoes.
Have you heard the latest news?
Lazarus is back from the dead looking as one would expect.
Dripping with the waters of Sheol.
Babbling about body and soul.
And Then he found his wife in their bed buck naked and already wed.
The tax collector beneath his sheets.
The door swings open. Floorboards creak.
Now who will toast our noble host who has this morning given up the ghost?
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve.
The sons of Cain receive no reprieve.

Review about Eulogy For A Ghost I agree...true artists | Reviewer: Mark Boyd | 3/20/09
I agree with Austin Holm-McRae...Clutch is just an amazing band and have become my absolute favorites over the past 5 years.
Tremendous musicians who have fun with their craft and in Neil Fallon have a true visionary lyricist with just an unbelievable command of vocabulary and wordplay. Clutch's lyrics are always worth looking into and Ghost is no exception:)
This is just testament to the ammount of time that Clutch spends on their lyrics and actually contemplating the meaning of what exactly they are saying. Just an amazing song, lyrically, rhythmically, everything is just great. Clutch is absolutely one of the great bands of our time, just true artists.
