Next messiah

livin' in the meadow,
the mighty, mighty meadow,
with too many people
suckin' all the water.
and my daddy was a farmer,
he was a racecar driver,
he is a four leaf clover
he is the next messiah.

now he's living in the woods
the dark and dank woods
with a cocktail waitress
who thinks she's an artist.
so go down to the river
split it right up the middle
now it's gonna be trouble
for a pregnant lamb and a con man

now he's sick in the clink
with his head in the sink
and the tumor's gonna make a
man outta him
now, my daddy was a chancer
he was a bad-check bouncer
but he beat that cancer.
he is a survivor.

he's the next messiah (x5)

covering it up,
squeezing it out,
watching it bleed.
you're watching it all,
taking it back.
she's down on her knees.
when did she come to detest you?
giving it back,
backing you up,
nothing's for free.
you're giving it back,
for locking you up,
those terrible deeds.
when will they come to arrest you?
when did she come to detest you?

when will they come to arrest you?
when did she come to detest you?

i'm gonna give my love to you on a day you gotta bring it back. (x4)
i want to tell you I love you. (x4)

i want to tell you I love you. (x5)
I'm gonna go out walking baby, better be here when I get back.(x2)

I'm gonna give my love to you on a day you gotta bring it back. (x2)
I want to tell you I love you. (x2)

he's the next messiah. (x4)
