Tin Roof lyrics

Lesser of malleable metals

Of itself, rustworthy

A gift of the gods to man

Component o'er, essential

Civilization's start and end

For production's prosperity

Can reap destruction's disparity

All by intentions genesis birthed

The paradox that humanity brings

To interventions with the earth

Copper and tin make arms kept

That keep secure, that offend

Or compliments of betterment

To coax rewards of the land

Propagating life's continuance

Separated from lead, lost duality

Molded death cast to make rounds

Where war and violence battle on

Against the yielded balance of life

All by metal made of natural cause

Beneath a tin roof we survive

Thriving even in the duality of intent

Where a combination of actions

Milling toils and purpose together

To create finery from the gathered raw
