A Roman soldier says to his boss “I got a feeling I can’t shake
Ever since we pinned that lunatic on the cross,
every night I lie awake
Having visions of a great serpent sleeping in the roots of a burning tree
And a movie called the end of the world and the main character is me
Heaven knows that I dream about murder even when I’m down on my bended knee”
The mistress says to the bridegroom “Just apologize to yourself
No one here believes your lies as much as you yourself.
Besides, I’ve never met a man who could put a ring on me
Cause I’ve never found that love is a reason not to be free
And I see the way your eyes wander even when you’re down on your bended knee”
Satanic verses on the men’s room wall
Hieroglyphics on the second stall
Forgotten thoughts of lost souls scrawled from the ceiling to the floor
And if I stare in this mirror any longer I’ll forget that I have a name
The Colorado River runs from the faucet to the drain
Sometimes I wonder what I’m running from when I’m down on my bended knee
The silence shattered by a mission bell, the sun muted by a cloud
The goat they’re gonna sacrifice for the feast is talking clear and loud
And the Padre pulls a book off the shelf called “The Dark Side of Our Lord”
As the maids pull the sheets off the clothesline, getting ready for the storm
You ever wonder who you’re talking to when you’re down on your bended knee?
