| 歌曲 | John the Baptist Jones |
| 歌手 | Momus |
| 专辑 | Circus Maximus |
| 作词 : Currie | |
| I was ahead | |
| I was a seer | |
| I left for Babylon | |
| You and Herodias stayed in the wilderness | |
| I was the one | |
| With the halo on | |
| But it was all to no avail | |
| To know a veil of tears | |
| When I was John the Baptist | |
| When I was John the Baptist | |
| When I was John the Baptist Jones | |
| Ahead on points, ahead of my time | |
| I was neck and neck with the Kings of Crime | |
| I worked the rivers, I owned my own home | |
| I was head and shoulders over flesh and bone | |
| But when you did the dance of the seven veils | |
| Salome, Salome, there was only the crockery below me | |
| I was ahead | |
| I was a divine | |
| My success, like shampoo, washed you clean out of my mind | |
| How could I know | |
| The lengths you would go | |
| When you're ahead of Jesus Christ you don't look behind | |
| When I was John the Baptist | |
| When I was John the Baptist | |
| When I was John the Baptist Jones | |
| Ahead of schedule, ahead of the hoard | |
| I had the Moral Majority drunk as a Lord | |
| I ..... I ducked adulterers and did it alone | |
| I was head and shoulders over flesh and bone | |
| But when you did the dance of the seven veils | |
| Salome, Salome, there was only the crockery below me | |
| Believe me, reprieve me, can you forgive me? | |
| My sweet Salome, can you reprieve me? For just one night, dear | |
| You put yourself below me | |
| Heavens above Salome, put yourself below me | |
| ..... For just one night |
