Текст песни:
started with the man
who turned an inexpensive room into st peters
there’s a parabolic story but it’s boring
and it ends how you’d expect
forever dressing down
i’m like a stranger
hanging round outside the kingdom hall
i’d’ve carried your wedding shawl
you could’ve said i was a school friend
and you drag your holy horse cart
in the sky when i wake up
they say it’s just the sun
but i know that face
excavating down
you’d find the drowning
and the drowned
and then they ?
you could’ve walked to a memorial
but it’s pouring
and it ends how you’d expect
i’d dig your dresses out
and hand em round about the house
and turn the lights down low
now you’re everywhere i go
looking faintly disappointed
and you drag your holy horse cart
in the sky when i wake up
they say it’s just the sun
but i know that face
the devil’s tricks
just seem to sit so light on you
they’d never get the marionette
that’s tied on you
in the parliamentary houses
there’ll be talk of what this is
with inexpert witnesses
and evidence against us
but i’ll take my pound of substance
from those insubstantial then
whatever their arguments
i’ll prove your innocence
drag your holy horse cart
in the sky when i wake up
oh yeah
testify allegiance with more
punctured wounds than jesus
oh yeah
every statues’ weeping honey
and it makes my sight go funny
cause i’m over sympathetic
and i can’t control myself
leave that painful memory
in the garden of Gethsemane
oh yeah,
oh yeah
