God in a Bathroom Mirror
What a place
Damn, what a scene
Man you should've seen it
Just Dave and me
Getting down
With our head in the stars
Shooting Comets Tails
At the Warp Speed Bar
Interplanetary space decor
Science fiction drinking just
Five bucks at the door
Old Dave whispered to me
"Look who just walked in"
I said, "Damn I haven't
Seen her since
God knows when"
It got me thinking
Did a Yahoo search
Found her singing nightly
In a new age church
Fancy lights and reverb on
Boy it looked like
Fun
We locked eyes
And what are the chances?
Drank and spent
The whole night dancing
"Slide to the left
Slide to the right
Three hops now"
It was outta sight
But, come here
You wanna hear something weird?
She swore she saw
God in a bathroom mirror
At a truck stop dive
Off the 101
The Holy Ghost
The Father
And the Son
And she told me
To fold my knees and pray
Because Jesus
Is coming back to save
And she smiled like a woman who was heaven bound
As she called out and offered me
Another round
But it was ten to one
I was flailing drunk
Should've held my tongue
"Would you recognize him, if he did?
Would you join him if his search
Was not for you in your mega church?
Will they demonize him again?
If his fight for love and peace
Takes him to the streets
If he gets roughed up by police
Would you fight for his release?
Is it you, or from you, he'd save?"
Got a drink thrown in my face
Sunday morning
Oh, what a drag
Me, my dog Lito
And a cheap poop bag
There's a man's rooting through
My garbage can
But it's all slim pickings
So I wave a hand
He blows smoke
Nods his head
There's old junk rusting
In his old truck bed
And a washed out sticker
On the tailgate reads
"No Justice
No Peace."
No peace, without justice
Damn, what a scene
Man you should've seen it
Just Dave and me
Getting down
With our head in the stars
Shooting Comets Tails
At the Warp Speed Bar
Interplanetary space decor
Science fiction drinking just
Five bucks at the door
Old Dave whispered to me
