BMX Bandits - Ferdinand’s Cathedral

Copied!edit Lyrics

Mailbag so heavy
And feet covered in sores
I walk muddy paths and no paths at all
But I walk with nature
She's a good friend to me
And I'll start to praise her
As soon as I'm free

Three letters for Arton and one for Defu
Twenty miles home and then I'll through
But there's no rest for the wicked
And there'll be none for me
I'll start my real work
And in heaven I'll be

I'll build my own cathedral
Towering up to the sky
I can hear them all laughing
And wondering why...
I'm just a humble postman
But following God's master plan
I'll build him a cathedral
Build it the best that I can

For more than three decades I've built everyday
Staircases and towers
Stone, wire and clay
And when I'm finished, finished quite soon
I will start working on building my own tomb
