Our Lady of the Underground |
| I don’t know about you, boys |
| But if you’re like me, then hanging around |
| This old manhole is bringing you down |
| Six-feet-under getting under your skin |
| Cabin fever is a-setting in |
| You’re stir crazy! |
| You’re stuck in a rut! |
| Or you could use a little pick-me-up |
| I can give you what it is you crave |
| A little something from the good old days |
| I got the wind right here in a jar |
| I got the rain on tap at the bar |
| I got sunshine up on the shelf |
| Allow me to introduce myself |
| Brother, what’s my name? |
| My name is… |
| Our Lady of the Underground! |
| Brother, what’s my name? |
| Our Lady of Ways! |
| Our Lady of Means! |
| Brother, what’s my name? |
| My name is… |
| Our Lady of the Upside Down! |
| Brother what’s my name? |
| I’ll tell you my name… |
| Persephone! |
| Come here, brother, let me guess |
| It’s the little things you miss |
| Spring flowers, autumn leaves |
| Ask me, brother, and you shall receive |
| Or maybe these just ain’t enough |
| Maybe you’re looking for some stronger stuff |
| I got a sight for the sorest eye |
| When’s the last time you saw the sky? |
| Wipe away your tears, brother |
| Brother, I know how you feel |
| I can see you’re blinded by the sadness of it all |
| But look a little closer, everything will be revealed |
| Look a little closer, there’s a crack in the wall |
| You want stars? |
| I got a skyful |
| Put a quarter in the slot, you’ll get an eyeful |
| You want the moon? |
| I got her too |
| She’s right here waiting in my pay-per-view |
| Oh, how long’s it been? |
| A little moonshine ain’t no sin |
| One at a time, boys, straight line |
| What the boss don’t know, the boss won’t mind |
