[00:08.23] It started with the moon that turned
[00:09.94] An inexpensive room into St. Peter's
[00:15.96] There's a parabolic story, but it's boring
[00:20.30] And it ends how you'd expect
[00:24.56] Forever dressing down
[00:25.93] I'm like a stranger hanging round outside the Kingdom Hall
[00:31.43] I'd have carried your wedding shawl---
[00:35.53] You could've said I was a school friend
[00:40.19] And you drag your holy horse cart in the sky when I wake up
[00:47.92] They say it's just the sun, but I know that face
[00:54.71] .
[01:05.18] Excavating down you'd find the drowning and the drowned
[01:08.94] And then there's us, babe
[01:12.69] You could walk to our memorial
[01:14.51] But it's pouring, and it ends how you'd expect
[01:20.22] I'd dig your dresses out and hang 'em round about the house
[01:24.07] And turn the lights down low---
[01:27.42] Now you're everywhere I go
[01:31.20] Looking faintly disappointed
[01:35.32] And you drag your holy horse cart in the sky when I wake up
[01:43.12] They say it's just the sun, but I know that face
[01:49.34] .
[01:52.23] The devil's tricks just seem to sit so light on you
[02:00.13] They'd never get the marionette this tight on you
[02:05.99] In the parliamentary houses there'll be talk of what this is
[02:13.69] With inexpert witnesses and evidence against us
[02:21.23] But I'll take my pound of substance
[02:25.03] From those insubstantial men
[02:28.87] Whatever their arguments, I'll prove your innocence
[02:37.40] Drag your holy horse cart in the sky when I wake up, oh yeah!
[02:52.42] Testify allegiance with more puncture wounds than Jesus, oh yeah!
[03:06.94] Every statue's weeping honey and it makes my sight go funny
[03:14.47] Cause I'm over-sympathetic and I can't control myself
[03:22.78] Leave that painful memory in the Garden of Gethsemane, oh yeah
[03:37.63] Oh yeaaah....
[03:49.28] .
