From the wrong side of nothin
|
To the right side of gone
|
He left em all reelin
|
With his white bucks on
|
And headed out west
|
Cross road to the bone
|
With the beat of his heart
|
And the radio on
|
Got the fire in his blood
|
Snake on his tongue
|
Knows the BIG BOY's a commin
|
Better bust em up an run
|
SPACESHIPS AND MONKEYS
|
EVOLUTION AND BOOZE
|
BAR MAIDS AND PISTOLS
|
SALIVATION AND FOOLS
|
HIGHWAYS AND TENT SHOWS
|
CITIES AND TOWNS .
|
LOVE'S JUST A CRAPSHOOT
|
LAY YOUR MONEY DOWN
|
YEAH EVERYTHING'S OVER
|
LIKE IT ALL JUST BEGUN
|
THAT BIG BOY'S A COMMIN
|
BETTER BUST EM UP AN RUN
|
Yeah slick-backed his hair
|
Dry cleaned his robes
|
Delivered his predictions
|
Like the prophets of old
|
How the blood of the lamb
|
From the sheep from the fold
|
Rise up in a flood
|
An wash away your souls
|
And the Devil's just grinnin
|
At the thought of the fun
|
Of that BIG BOY a commin
|
Better bust em up an run
|
REAL ESTATE AND JUNKIES
|
CANCERS AND ART
|
HOMOS AND HETROS
|
TOGETHER AND APART
|
COMPUTERS AND SKINHEADS
|
LIFE AFTER DEATH
|
HOLD ON TO THE GOOD BOOK
|
BUT DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH
|
YEAH IT'S ALREADY OVER
|
THE END JUST BEGUN
|
AH THE BIG BOY'S A COMMIN
|
BETTER BUST EM UP AN RUN
|
With his head in the city
|
And his heart out of town
|
He preached on the corners
|
Of it all commin down
|
Grab hold to your children
|
Gather your pets
|
He been here before
|
But you ain? seen nothin yet
|
Gonna light up your world
|

|
Duck talking to the sky.
|
Hello Daddy
|
Hello Momma
|
Hello old friends
|
Angels of the mystery
|
Flying out flying in
|
There ain't no way
|
That's the way it goes
|
And heaven is just an adjustment
|
That moves on down the road
|
