The Last Supper - Larry Norman

There was a pig on the table

With a fig in his mouth

And a snake crawled around the plate

And when the wine turned to water

And the bread turned to dust

I knew I’d arrived too late

It was the last supper

A seven course meal for the soul

It was the last supper

And I was the last to know

I saw my name in a book

That lay in front of the veil

With a key in between the pages

And when I unlocked the door

I found a hall full of mirrors

And I saw my life in stages

It was the last supper

And a snake crawled around the plate

It was the last supper

And I knew I’d arrived to late

Last night I came to the gates

With invitation in hand

And my old life left behind

I came as soon as he called

But long before I had planned

Still I came prepared to dine

It was the last supper

And a snake crawled around the plate

It was the last supper

And I knew I’d arrived to late
