Take my advice |
|
It doesn't get easier watching the golden orbs floating out of the bars |
|
And into space there's Frank Sinatra on the Juke box |
|
Pause in the ketchup your face in the reflection in the mirror |
|
He walked through the rocks, you know |
|
He walked through the scorpion dust |
|
He walks on the beach and now he walks |
|
And he keeps walking 'til he's out of reach |
|
Every generation watches the princes of their nation |
|
File away until the Son of Man every, every Madonna means so little to the next one |
|
We ran together down the Santa Monica Boulevard oh baby |
|
You look so hard, so fine |
|
And my second-hand capella all that night I said Oo hoo...I said Oo hoo oo hoo |
|
There you are in your write dress shirt most of all I think I loved your hands |
|
I loved them so much that it hurt and all the bartenders knew your name |
|
And all the pimps knew your car and we lay by the Nazz |
|
And we were blessed yes, we are |
|
You tell them I was there hey I was there man I was there |
|
When Jesus walked I was there when Jesus walked |
|
Now I don't know what happened, what happened was Babylon and that little Sheba |
|
With her siren song and the planets swirling |
|
Where no one's ugly and everyone's square no one's ugly and everyone's square |
|
There's no such place I heard such peach when he played those traps |
|
I heard such peace when He looked out at the map |
|
And it ran through me and echoed into another time and space and place |
|
And it ran through me way on back in time way on up is fine |
|
Way one back in time was on up is fine way on back in time |
|
Take my advice and go throw it away it's gonna do you no good until you blow for good |
|
Cause you are there man you are there don't you know |
|
You are there where Jesus walked, every generation, yeah the princes of their nation |
|
Well, I'm ugly, too. No, no you're not beautiful, no, you're ugly too |
|
Cause you've been travelling in so many universes and you manifest here |
|
It's difficult to see who you are |
|
Brother I didn't realize that you were talking to me until you broke that bread and I saw that you were |
|
Where have you been that you don't know what's been going on here in Jerusalem |
|
Haven't you heard, haven't you heard about the Nazarene, you know |
|
We thought we were gonna set Israel free |
