Don't interrupt the sorrow
|
Darn right
|
In flames our prophet witches
|
Be polite
|
A room full of glasses
|
He says "Your notches liberation doll"
|
And he chains me with that serpent
|
To that Ethiopian wall
|
|
Anima rising
|
Queen of Queens
|
Wash my guilt of Eden
|
Wash and balance me
|
Anima rising
|
Uprising in me tonight
|
She's a vengeful little goddess
|
With an ancient crown to fight
|
|
Truth goes up in vapors
|
The steeples lean
|
Winds of change patriarchs
|
Snug in your bible belt dreams
|
God goes up the chimney
|
Like childhood Santa Claus
|
The good slaves love the good book
|
A rebel loves a cause
|
|
I'm leaving on the 1:15
|
You're darn right
|
Since I was seventeen
|
I've had no one over me
|
He says "Anima rising-
|
So what-
|
Petrified wood process
|
Tall timber down to rock!"
|
|
Don't interrupt the sorrow
|
Darn right
|
He says "We walked on the moon
|
You be polite."
|
Don't let up the sorrow
|
Death and birth and death and birth
|
He says "Bring that bottle kindly
|
And I'll pad your purse-
|
I've got a head full of quandary
|
And a mighty, mighty, thirst."
|
|
Seventeen glasses
|
Rhine wine
|
Milk of the Madonna
|
Clandestine
|
He don't let up the sorrow
|
He lies and he cheats
|
It takes a heart like Mary's these days
|
When your man gets weak
|
