MY OH MY WHAT HAVE WE HERE?
A SIGHT FOR SORE YOUNG CATHOLIC EYES.
A FLORAL BED, A SIX PAGE SPREAD,
A MAGDALENE FOR ’88 BURNING IN MY HEAD.
I GOT SECRETS AS GOOD AS A RICH MAN’S.
THOUGHT CRIMES IN THESE NEIGHBORS’ BATHROOMS.
I WAS 15, YOU WERE 28. THIS USED TO BE SUCH A NICE STREET.
BUT NOW THEY LOCK THE BATHROOM DOORS
AND ANYTHING THAT ISN’T NAILED DOWN.
THE BAKKER IS OUT, THE DOCTOR IS IN.
THE GREAT WHITE HOPE IS AT IT AGAIN.
THE BAKKER IS OUT, BUT I’VE GOT IT IN HAND.
CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY, I’M LOST IN THE EYES.
HAND ON THE DOOR TURNS, I’M TAKING MY TIME.
CAUGHT RED-HANDED OVER YOU.
GUILTY, GUILTY, THROUGH AND THROUGH
AND I’M BUSTED.
SPLAYED OUT AND DEFIANT,
MOUTHING THE WORDS TO LIFE LESSONS,
YOU SAY “FUCK IT, HOLD ON TO YOUR SHAME, SON.
YOU’RE GONNA NEED IT WHEN WE INHERIT THE EARTH.”
BEEN BUSTED, THROUGH AND THROUGH.
BEEN BUSTED, THROUGH AND THROUGH.
RED-HANDED OVER YOU.

WAITING. WAITING. WAITING.
WAITING FOR THE MIRACLE, BUT NOTHING COMES OUT.
I’M HANGING UP ON THE DETAILS.
BUT NOTHING COMES OUT, NOTHING COMES OUT,
CAUSE THIS IS NO PLACE AND YOU AINT NOWHERE
FOR TAKING QUESTIONS.
& ALL MY FRIENDS LIVE IN TWO DIMENSIONS NOW.
WE HAVEN’T SEEN THEM SINCE.
THEY WERE CONVINCED THAT
WE HAD THE PROPHETS IN OUR THROATS.
BUT THEY AIN’T GODS, THEY JUST CRACKED THE CODES,
AND GAVE YOU...EVERYTHING?
TAP INTO THE CRANE SHOT,
WHAT THE CROWS SEE WHEN THEY LOOK DOWN.
IT’S EASY. SO EASY.
NEVER BEEN SO EASY LOOKING UP FROM THE GROUND.
I’M HANGING UP ON THE DETAILS.
I’M STRUNG UP ON THE HIGH SPEED WIRES.
FUTURE FUTURE BURNING BRIGHT
I’M SICK OF ALL THE FLASHING LIGHTS.
HAVEN’T SEEN THEM SINCE.
WE WERE CONVINCED THAT
WE HAD THE PROPHETS IN OUR THROATS.
BUT THEY AIN’T GODS, THEY JUST CRACKED THE CODES,
AND GAVE US EVERYTHING -
WE WANTED EVERYTHING, NOW WE GOT EVERYTHING.
NOW WE GOT EVERYTHING BUT REAL LIVE FLESH AND BLOOD.
NOW WE’VE GOT EVERYTHING BUT.
GET LOST GOING NOWHERE FAST.
