Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
They tell me revenge is sweet and from where they stand, I'm sure it is.
The angels play on their horns all day,; The whole earth in progression seems to pass by.; But does anyone hear the music they play,; Does anyone even try?
Glamorous nymph with an arrow and bow
Some things last longer than you think they will; There are some kind of things you can never kill
She was with Big Jim but she was leanin' to the Jack of Hearts
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere; Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
You should be made; To wear earphones
But the magician is quicker and his game; Is much thicker than blood and blacker than ink
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Handy dandy, he got a basket of flowers and a bag full or sorrow
Well, they're not showing any lights tonight; And there's no moon.
I'll give you more gold; Than your apron can hold; If you'll only let your hair hang low
If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born
Now at midnight all the agents; And the superhuman crew; Come out and round up everyone; That knows more than they do
Let me ask you one question; Is your money that good
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?; If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
Get the loot, don't be slow, we're gonna catch a trout
Your mind is your temple, keep it beautiful and free,; Don't let an egg get laid in it by something you can't see.
God is in heaven; And we all want what's his; But power and greed and corruptible seed; Seem to be all that there is
For I know that you know that I know that you know; Something is tearing up your mind.
I'm going back to New York City; I do believe I've had enough
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
Ever since you walked right in, the circle's been complete
Wealth is a filthy rag; So erotic so unpatriotic; So wrapped up in the American flag
Just do your thing, you'll be king; If dogs run free.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
He said, Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch?; I said, I got no money. He said, That ain't necessary.
And I, I don't mind the pain; Don't mind the driving rain; I know I will sustain; 'Cause I believe in you.
I finally realize there's no room for regret
Somebody's got to find your trail,; I guess it must be up to me.
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
Oh, baby, that god you been prayin' to; Is gonna give ya back what you're wishin' on someone else
Since every pleasure's got an edge of pain; Pay for your ticket and don't complain
They like to take all this money from sin, build big universities to study in; Sing Amazing Grace all the way to the Swiss banks
A million faces at my feet; But all I see are dark eyes
Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more
My so-called friends have fallen under a spell.; They look me squarely in the eye and they say, "All is well."; Can they imagine the darkness that will fall from on high; When men will beg God to kill them and they won't be able to die?
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me
All the people we used to know; Are an illusion to me now
Well, I wake in the morning, Fold my hands and pray for rain.; I got a head full of ideas, That are drivin' me insane.
What's lost is lost, we can't regain what went down in the flood
We're going all the way 'til the wheels fall off and burn
don't criticize; what you can't understand.
Did I miss the mark or; Over-step the line; That only you could see?
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
Whatever you gonna do,; Please do it fast.
Mama, take this badge off of me
Tell ev'rybody; Down in ol' 'Frisco; That Tiny Montgomery's comin'; Down to say Hello
Shine your light, shine your light on me; Ya know I just couldn't make it by myself.; I'm a little too blind to see
Lovin' you is the one thing I'll never regret.
There's no one here, the gardener is gone
I've already ripped out the phones, honey.; You can't walk the streets in a war
Your cracked country lips,; I still wish to kiss,; As to be under the strength of your skin.
Well, I try my best; To be just like I am,; But everybody wants you; To be just like them.
If you're lookin' to get silly; You better go back to from where you came
