Cracked Messiah
He looked really tall
'cause his heels were high
they'd puffed him up like a
porcupine
so I lifted him up to mortal
heights
when ambition kicked me in
the eye
How could he act so
thaughtlessly
how could it ever come to be
that his great and genial fragile mind
appeared to be a cavity
A song, A kiss
A twist of fate
that made messiah overweight
and his saint-like stigmat
only for show
Don't stand in my way
Listen hear what I say
love comes in different ways
Now how could he act so
thaughtlessly
how could it ever come to be
that his great and genial
fragile mind
appeared to be a cavity
And then the enemy dropped the bomb
survivors there were none,
she said
and smiled, I jerked, I tried again
and failed
Don't stand in my way
Listen hear what I say
Just stay were You are
You're nothing but a fallen star
a cracked messiah is what you are
-But we can sing,
we can dance and do the mime
Oh, lay Your hand in mine
maybe I can make You smile
Yes, we can sing,
we can drink champagne all night
-Don't be afraid,
we can lie in bed all day
and just talk about good times
And we can sing...
'cause his heels were high
they'd puffed him up like a
porcupine
so I lifted him up to mortal
heights
when ambition kicked me in
the eye
How could he act so
thaughtlessly
how could it ever come to be
that his great and genial fragile mind
appeared to be a cavity
A song, A kiss
A twist of fate
that made messiah overweight
and his saint-like stigmat
only for show
Don't stand in my way
Listen hear what I say
love comes in different ways
Now how could he act so
thaughtlessly
how could it ever come to be
that his great and genial
fragile mind
appeared to be a cavity
And then the enemy dropped the bomb
survivors there were none,
she said
and smiled, I jerked, I tried again
and failed
Don't stand in my way
Listen hear what I say
Just stay were You are
You're nothing but a fallen star
a cracked messiah is what you are
-But we can sing,
we can dance and do the mime
Oh, lay Your hand in mine
maybe I can make You smile
Yes, we can sing,
we can drink champagne all night
-Don't be afraid,
we can lie in bed all day
and just talk about good times
And we can sing...
