When Becky Comes Around
There's a woman going around taking names
And she decides who to trust and who to blame.
Everybody won't be treated all the same.
The glass ceiling will come crashing down
When Becky comes around.
The hairs on your arm will stand up
At the beauty in each sip and in each sup.
Will you partake of that last offered cup?
Or disappear into the potter's ground
When Becky comes around?
Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers.
One hundred million children cheering.
Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum.
Angels singing and eagles soaring
Wolves howling and tigers roaring.
It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come.
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree
The men are all trimming their wicks.
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
'Til Armageddon, no shalam, no shalom.
Then the mother dog will call her puppies home
The Queen will give up her throne.
And then hand over her golden crown
When Becky comes around.
Whoever is unjust, let them be unjust still.
Whoever is righteous, let them be righteous still.
Whoever is filthy, let them be filthy still.
Read the words she's writing down
When Becky comes around.
Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers.
One hundred million children cheering.
Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum.
Angels singing and eagles soaring
Wolves howling and tigers roaring.
It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come.
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree
The men are all trimming their wicks.
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
In measured hundred weight and penny pound
When Becky comes around.
