The Next Messiah |
Livin' in the meadow |
The mighty, mighty meadow |
With too many people |
Suckin' all the water |
And my daddy was a farmer |
He was a racecar driver |
He is a four leaf clover |
He is the next messiah |
Now he’s living in the woods |
The dark and dank woods |
With a cocktail waitress |
Who thinks she’s an artist |
Take it down to the river |
Split it right up the middle |
Now it’s gonna be trouble |
For a pregnant lamb and a con man |
Now he’s sick in the clink |
With his head in the sink |
And the tumor gonna make a |
Man outta him |
Now, my daddy was a chancer |
He was a bad-check bouncer |
But he beat that cancer |
He’s a survivor |
He’s the next messiah |
He’s the next messiah |
He’s the next messiah |
He’s the next messiah |
Covering it up |
Squeezing it out |
Watching it bleed |
You’re watching it all |
Taking it back |
She’s down on her knees |
When did she come to detest you? |
Giving it back |
Backing you up |
Nothing’s for free |
You’re giving it back |
For locking you up |
Those terrible deeds |
When will they come to arrest you? |
When did she come to detest you? |
When will they come to arrest you? |
When did she come to detest you? |
I’m gonna give my love to you on a day you gotta bring it back |
I’m gonna give my love to you on a day you gotta bring it back |
(I want to tell you I love you) I’m gonna give my love to you |
(I want to tell you I love you) on a day you gotta bring it back |
(I want to tell you I love you) I’m gonna give my love to you |
(I want to tell you I love you) on a day you gotta bring it back |
I want to tell you I love you |
I want to tell you I love you |
(I'm gonna go out walking baby) I want to tell you I love you |
(Better be here when I get back) I want to tell you I love you |
(I'm gonna go out walking baby) I want to tell you I love you |
(Better be here when I get back) I want to tell you I love you |
I’m gonna give my love to you on a day you gotta bring it back |
I’m gonna give my love to you on a day you gotta bring it back |
I want to tell you I love you |
I want to tell you I love you |
He’s the next messiah |
He’s the next messiah |
He’s the next messiah |
He’s the next messiah |
