The Lesson Of Sodom (According to Lot) - Momus

For seventeen days we’ve lived in this cave

Overlooking the plain with the ruined remains of Gomorra

When the brimstone was sent we were exempt

But the daughters of Salt are tempting

The lesson of Sodom according to God:

You spoil the child if you spare the rod

But we had a problem, me and my girls

I was the only man in the world

The lesson of Sodom according to Lot:

If a bottle of wine is all you’ve got

Between the salt in your wounds and Lot, girls

The lesson of Sodom is:

`I forgot'

Is it my drunkenness or my first-born's kiss

That makes my second-born's hips sway like there is no tomorrow?

Well drink is a curse and lust is the worst

But the daughters of Salt are thirsting!

The lesson of Sodom according to God:

You spoil the child if you spare the rod

But we had a problem, me and my girls

I was the only man in the world

The lesson of Sodom according to Lot:

If a bottle of wine is all you’ve got

Between the salt in your wounds and Lot, girls

The lesson of Sodom is:

`I forgot'

With these alibis; a pair of closed eyes and a bottle of wine

There’s no need to die for your pleasure

I’m getting the best of both worlds in incest

The daughters of Salt — they insist!

The lesson of Sodom according to God:

You spoil the child if you spare the rod

But we had a problem, me and my girls

I was the only man in the world

To put my girls in the way of the world

The lesson of Sodom according to Lot:

If a bottle of wine is all you’ve got

Between the salt in your wounds and Lot, girls

The lesson of Sodom is:

`I forgot'

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink?

No!

A bird in the hand is worth two in the —

No!

The lesson of Sodom is.

The lesson of Sodom according to Lot

The lesson of Sodom is. .

I forgot!
