Lyrics
[Verse 1] Oh, come now, father, dear And turn this blood to choice You know, I think these young are spent And have seen their day

My back bears the scars of work While my sweat has cut the cost If my word to God isn't bond Then I'll be damned to say

[Interlude] This can't be so bad Only, I sure did love the way she danced

[Verse 2] Oh, come now, Preacher, to where This flesh begins to spoil You know I think these young are done And have seen their day

So could I remove their tongues Of curse, and cast away? Oh, these dirty games I play

[Outro] Long-Arm, you liar! Go run home to Mama! A good boy never gets to dance

Long-Arm, you liar! Go run home to Mama! These good boys never get a chance

Story Context
"" '''As the official story has not yet been released, anything in this section is speculation, not fact. More so than usual, of course.'''

Here, we are sticking to the Bleams. Someone is taking to the Preacher (who may or may not also be the literal father in the Bleam family) who is orchestrating the boys to use the Machine, but their mother or another unnamed person (more likely) telling him he thinks the boys shouldn't be involved anymore. At the end, Long-Arm is told to "run home to Mama" and that "good boys never get to dance" with "dance" most likely being a euphemism for dying.
