G.P.G.G. - The Tenants

The rejected stone
Is the cornerstone
And the one who falls on it
Is broken to pieces

A landlord planted a vineyard
Fenced in the property
And built a winepress
And a tower
The leased it out to some tenants

The rejected stone
Is the cornerstone
And the one who falls on it
Is broken to pieces

When the rent was due
The landlord sent some employees to collect
The tenants beat some and killed others
The landowner sent some more employees
But the same thing happened again

The rejected stone
Is the cornerstone
And the one who falls on it
Is broken to pieces

The landowner sent his son
Believing the tenants would respect them
They did not
They killed him
So now the landlord must kill them all
And take the vineyard back

The rejected stone
Is the cornerstone
And the one who falls on it
Is broken to pieces
