i'm feeling very moses like
|
you think that i could lead you?
|
or humble, more like david
|
would you help me cause i need you?
|
or i'll be charismatic
|
with the power to persuade you
|
|
supposing i'm a saviour
|
or a drunkard, or your highness
|
you slither in these sheets
|
and then you ask me for forgiveness
|
i'll tell you parables of making love
|
and spreading kindness
|
|
flames rise like butterflies
|
been frightened by my stompin'
|
i'm laughing 'cause they don't know who i am
|
the philistines toss tangerines
|
'cause springtime is for dancing
|
in like a lion and out like a lamb
|
|
goliath sits and watches
|
tired of this investigation
|
so children grab your M-16s
|
and load your ammunition
|
i will work all night
|
rewrite the book of revelations
|
|
flames rise like butterflies
|
been frightened by my stompin'
|
i'm laughing 'cause they don't know who i am
|
the philistines toss tangerines
|
'cause springtime is for dancing
|
in like a lion and out like a lamb
|
|
now go and tune your guitars
|
and i'll meet you here tomorrow
|
grab that case of scotch
|
it's all the courage you can swallow
|
i'll burn for all your sins
|
but i'm expecting you to follow
|
|
flames rise like butterflies
|
been frightened by my stompin'
|
i'm laughing 'cause they don't know who i am
|
the philistines load magazines
|
'cause springtime is for dancing
|
in like a lion and out like a lamb
|
