Who are we sometimes I wonder | |
Mercenaries or lovers | |
On this side of the thunder | |
It can be awful hard to know | |
Sell our love for the paycheck or | |
Spend the night on the freight deck | |
For all the dues that we collect | |
Our hearts can be overdrawn | |
Dead in the water | |
Like lamb to the slaughter | |
If the wind doesn’t sing her song | |
And I’m speaking in tongues | |
Cause I need a Holy Ghost | |
The geeks they can smell when you’re coming | |
Even out in the cold | |
They’ll wait you out yeah | |
They’ll grind you down | |
But they’re gonna get what they’re owed | |
I know the red thread unravels | |
I know you’re blue and you’re black | |
But there’s still time if you don’t mind | |
The way that the odds are stacked | |
Dead in the water | |
Lamb to the slaughter | |
If the wind doesn’t sing her song | |
And I’m speaking in tongues | |
Cause I need a Holy Ghost |
Who are we sometimes I wonder | |
Mercenaries or lovers | |
On this side of the thunder | |
It can be awful hard to know | |
Sell our love for the paycheck or | |
Spend the night on the freight deck | |
For all the dues that we collect | |
Our hearts can be overdrawn | |
Dead in the water | |
Like lamb to the slaughter | |
If the wind doesn' t sing her song | |
And I' m speaking in tongues | |
Cause I need a Holy Ghost | |
The geeks they can smell when you' re coming | |
Even out in the cold | |
They' ll wait you out yeah | |
They' ll grind you down | |
But they' re gonna get what they' re owed | |
I know the red thread unravels | |
I know you' re blue and you' re black | |
But there' s still time if you don' t mind | |
The way that the odds are stacked | |
Dead in the water | |
Lamb to the slaughter | |
If the wind doesn' t sing her song | |
And I' m speaking in tongues | |
Cause I need a Holy Ghost |
Who are we sometimes I wonder | |
Mercenaries or lovers | |
