ARTIST'S NOTES:
Another dream song. This one got me in Lee's downstairs apartment. The chorus blared loud and clear. Iraq war was quite fresh. January 2004. Hot Springs MT.
lyrics
Take all your false prophets
put em in a row
your crescents and your crosses
better nail 'em to you door
the star in the middle
will be coming back for more
in the the new configuration
of the middleastern war
CHORUS
One count early and one count slow
one drop will take you to Jerusalem
one count early and one count slow
one drop will take you to Jerusalem
take your new coat of armor
and a broad bladed sword
night vision goggles
laser guided bombs
you keep making rubble
out of some sacred stone
with the flash in the distance
that comes just before the dawn
CHORUS
Keep the drum that you're beating
up to the microphone
the thunder in the distance
will be here before you know
as the walls come tumbling
like they did so long ago
when Joshua fit the battle
of old Jericho
