Our Lady of the Underground

Step into my office

I don't know about you boys
But if you're like me
Been hanging around
This old manhole has been bringing you down

Six feet under
Getting under your skin
Cabin fever is-a setting in

You're stir crazy!
Stuck in a rut
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

Wanna know 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 was 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 and
Everything will be revealed
Look a little closer and
There's a crack in the wall!

You want stars?!
I got a sky full
Put a quarter in the slot
You'll get an eye full

You want the moon?
Yeah, I got her too
She's right here waiting in my pay-per-view

How longs it been?
Been a moonshine
Ain't no sin

Tell my husband to take his time
What the boss don't know the boss won't mind
