Lyrics

Bilingual
At first I saw you
You were in your suit of armour
Well hung upon the prairie
With your gun and your boots of leather
You'd read the book of Moses
You'd read the Kama Sutra
You were in your dominant phase
Looking out for who or whatever
Where's your protection
The thing that you call honour?
You seek perfection
But you know man's an avalanche
And then I saw you
You were bathing in the water
Your skin so disinfected
To the hilt with love and laughter
Some say you'd reached nirvana
Some say you were in the hereafter
You were in your petulant phase
I'm a boy, I'm not your father
Where's your protection
The thing that you call honour?
You seek possession
But you know man's an avalanche
Jesus Told Me
Jesus Told Me
Jesus Told Me
Jesus Told Me
Jesus Told Me
Jesus Told Me
Jesus Told Me
Then last I saw you
You were in your mother's womb
Heads down into the labyrinth
With your gun and your boots of leather
You'd read the book of Moses
You'd read the Kama Sutra
You were in your dominant phase
Looking out for who or whatever
Where's your protection
The thing that you call honour?
You seek perfection
But you know man's an avalanche
Where's your protection
The thing that you call honour?
You seek possession
But you know man's an avalanche
