Wealth is a filthy rag;
So erotic so unpatriotic;
So wrapped up in the American flag
You got a lotta nerve;
To say you are my friend
Cities on fire, phones out of order
You don't want a love that's pure;
You wanna drown love;
You want a watered-down love
What's a sweetheart like you doin' in a dump like this?
Took a stranger to teach me, to look into justice's beautiful face;
And to see an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
If the bible is right, the world will explode
Will I ever learn that there'll be no peace, that the war won't cease;
Until He returns?
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past;
I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
She was with Big Jim but she was leanin' to the Jack of Hearts
Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
But even the president of the United States, Sometimes must have, To stand naked.
She once was a true love of mine
While my conscience explodes;
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
Don't you know there's nothing new that's under the sun?;
Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one.
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties;
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
We never thought we could ever get old.;
We thought we could sit forever in fun
Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift
Oh, man has invented his doom, First step was touching the moon.
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
It's the last temptation;
The last account;
The last time you might hear the sermon on the mount,;
The last radio is playing.
Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?
I was in a whirlwind, now I'm in some better place.
I just can't fit;
Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
Here is your throat back;
Thanks for the loan
For all eternity I think I will remember;
That icy wind that's howling in your eye.
Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer;
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
Well, I asked for something to eat;
I'm hungry as a hog;
So I get brown rice, seaweed;
And a dirty hot dog
