|
They got to the part |
|
With the cattle and the creeping things |
|
Said I'm pretty sure we've heard this one before |
|
Don't it all end up in some revelation |
|
With four guys on horses and violent red visions |
|
Famine and death and pestilence and war? |
|
I'm pretty sure I heard this one before |
|
You in the corner with a good looking drifter |
|
Two cups of coffee and ten packs of sugar |
|
I heard Gideon saw you in Denver |
|
He said you're contagious |
|
Silly rabbit, tripping is for teenagers |
|
Murder is for murderers |
|
And hard drugs are for bartenders |
|
I think I might have mentioned that before |
|
He's got the pages in his pockets |
|
That he ripped out of the Bible |
|
From his bed stand in the motel |
|
He likes the part where the traders |
|
Get chased out from the temple |
|
I guess I heard about original sin |
|
I heard the dude blamed the chick |
|
I heard the chick blamed the snake |
|
I heard they were naked when they got busted |
|
And I heard things ain't been the same |
|
Since you on the streets with a tendency |
|
To preach to the choir |
|
Wired for sound and down with whatever |
|
I heard Gideon did you in Denver |
|
She's got a cross around her neck |
|
That she ripped off from a schoolgirl |
|
In the subway on a visit to the city |
|
She likes how it looks on her chest |
|
With three open buttons |
|
She likes the part where one brother kills the other |
|
She has to wonder if the world ever will recover |
|
'Cause Cain and Abel seem to still be causing trouble |
|
She said I was seeing double |
|
For three straight days after I got born again |
|
It felt strange but it was nice and peaceful |
|
And it really pleased me to be around so many people |
|
Of course, half of them were visions |
|
Half of them were friends from going |
|
Through the program with me |
|
Later on we did some sexy things |
|
Took a couple photographs |
|
And carved them into wood reliefs |
|
But that's enough about me |
|
Come on, tell me how you |
|
Got down here into Ybor City |
|
He said I got to the part about the Exodus |
|
And up to then I only knew |
|
It was a movement of the people |
|
But if small town cops are like swarms of flies |
|
And blackened foil is like boils and hail |
|
I'm pretty sure I've been through this before |
|
It seemed like a simple place to score |
|
And it seemed like a simple place to score |
|
It seemed like a simple place to score |
|
And then some old lady came to the door |
|
And said McKenzie Phillips doesn't live here anymore |
