This postcard tells you where we've bCeen
And dirty dreams of pious mGen
Who wake in fear but sleep agFain
With what they've doGne
With what they've doCne
With all they've doGne
Some prophet died but wrote it doCwn
Our serpent bell is on the groGund
And all the ladies singing loFud:
"HallelujaGh"
"HallelujCah"
"HallelujGah"
The meadow birds have found the boFnes of righteous mGen
Like ragged cloCthes, like precious stGones
And fell like evil in the eFnd, in aid of thGem
Those evil mCen, those perfect mGen
Some knuckle broken on disCease
Which pulled a preacher off his knGees
A callous whisper through the trFees
Blows: "patience bGoy"
"More patience bCoy"
"More patience bGoy"
And watch her children by the flCame
The ones you gave your father's nGame
Whose evil and his love remaFined
Inside you bGoy
Inside you bCoy
Inside you bGoy
The meadow birds have found the boFnes of righteous mGen
Like ragged cloCthes, like precious stGones
And fell like evil in the eFnd, in aid of thGem
Those evil mCen, those perfect mGen
We'll sing a song we've never heCard
Formed out of small forsaken woGrds
And all the while that this occFurs
We’ll love you aGll
We’ll love you aCll
We’ll love you aGll
And for the beauty that we've loCst
The measured time for love it coGst
Despite our feelings for the crFoss
We love you aGll
We love you aCll
We love you aGll
