Chapter 7, Blues Song

I’ve been there for you, sister,
Ever since daddy’s death.
Look how you paid me back.
I gave you shelter, food, affection,
And all you did was stab me in the back.
My sister, Daddy’s girl, how could you? How could you?

A poisonous snake – this is what you are.
Crawling, hissing, paralyzing me with your venom,
Depriving me from glory, gold, affection.
Now I am gonna take back what’s left,
And then smash your head.

You whispered you were scared.
I will always take care of you, I said.
I knew it, you knew it too.
Feeble and innocent my sister was.
I murdered a person for you, Pilate.
I took away a person’s life.
And you took away my joy.

A poisonous snake – this is what you are.
Crawling, hissing, paralyzing me with your venom,
Depriving me from glory, gold, affection.
Now I am gonna take back what’s left,
And then smash your head.


Little Pilate, Daddy’s girl, Daddy’s ghost,
Haunting me, haunting you.
No more, no more, no more.
Come out, come out

I am different now, wiser, stronger,
Staunch, deprived from affection.
You don’t fool me any longer.
An intruder in the snake’s nest I will be,
So hurry up, crawl away, take your babies
Or I am gonna take back that gold,
Then smash your head.
And if you bite me, I’m gonna bite you back.

The song uses the rhythm and melody of B.B.King's - How blue can you get?
