Another day that don't endAnother ship goin' outAnother day of anger, bitterness, and doubtI know how it happenedI saw it beginI opened my heart to the world and the world came in
Hello Mary LouHello Miss PearlMy fleet-footed guides from the underworldNo stars in the sky shine brighter than youYou girls mean business, and I do too
Well I'm the enemy of treasonEnemy of strifeI'm the enemy of the unlived meaningless lifeI ain't no false prophetI just know what I knowI go where only the lonely can go
I'm first among equalsSecond to noneThe last of the bestYou can bury the restBury 'em naked with their silver and goldPut them six feet under and I pray for their souls
What are you lookin' at?There's nothing to seeJust a cool breeze that's encircling meLet's go for a walk in the gardenSo far and so wideWe can sit in the shade by the fountain-side
I've search the world overFor the Holy GrailI sing songs of loveI sing songs of betrayalDon't care what I drinkI don't care what I eatI climbed the mountain of swords on my bare feet
You don't know me, darlin'You never would guessI'm nothing like my ghostly appearance would suggestI ain't no false prophetI just said what I saidI'm just here to bring vengeance on somebody's head
Put out your handThere's nothing to holdOpen your mouthI'll stuff it with goldOh, you poor devil, look up if you willThe city of God is there on the hill
Hello strangerA long goodbyeYou ruled the landBut so do IYou lost your muleYou got a poison brainI'll marry you to a ball and chain
You know darlin'The kind of life that I liveWhen your smile meets my smileA something's got to giveI ain't no false prophetNo, I'm nobody's brideCan't remember, when I was bornAnd I forgot when I died
