The Unnatural Conception In Two Parts The Birth And The Massacre Of T lyrics

[Music by A. Tompkins, J. Sherlock and J. De Ron]







The embryo implants the uterine lining,



folding within its amniotic abode



The gut and neural tubes forming in conjunction



Cardiac impulse with foetal brain function







The journey was harsh, days on the road in the dirt



The young couple compelled by the census taker to reach the City of David



The time came for the birth of her firstborn but no lodgings were found



So, wrapped in strips of cloth, the child was placed in an animal feeding
trough







In the absence of relations



The human paternal genome left in want



The Word became flesh and blood through the unnatural conception







The uterine contractions are a source of pain



The agonising passage through cervix dilating



Vacating the endometrium the child emerges, afterbirth, initial respiration







Infanticide has gripped Ephrath, mothers cry as their children die



His Highness, his wickedness, Herod the Great



Has slaughtered the innocents for his excruciating jealousy







The Magi had informed Herod of the birth of a king



His unbridled ambition was crushed by the arrival of the Christ



He consulted the chief priests and scribes as to the place of birth



Then, with his throne in thought, the ugly violence of the murders were
wrought



But too late for the child of promise had fled to western lands







The Word became flesh and blood through the unnatural conception



Thus the Christ of prophecy was born
