The Unnatural Conception In Two Parts Lyrics - Singles - Paramaecium

THE BIRTH AND THE MASSACRE OF THE INNOCENTS 

 

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
