How come you prophet while i profit not
Aren't we both eating from the same pot
You get the meat, while i get the bone
You drink the stew and leave me the stone
I see the bucket full, you say it empty
I see the bucket full, you say it empty
I see the bucket full
I want my food
How come you big while i am small?
Im not so tiny to help you at all
You may be goliath, but i am the king
And at your head will i aim my sling
How come you prophet while i profit not
Aren't we both eating from the same pot
You get the meat, while i get the bone
You drink the stew and leave me the stone
I see the bucket full, you say it empty
I see the bucket full, you say it empty
I see the bucket full
I want my food
How come you use the bucket to draw your fill
While we are waiting at the well still
Time slows down, the days grow long
But i am still singing the same old song
How come you prophet while i profit not
Aren't we both eating from the same pot
You get the meat, while i get the bone
You drink the stew and leave me the stone
I see the bucket full, you say it empty
I see the bucket full, you say it empty
I see the bucket full
I want my food
