John The Baptist Jones - Momus[00:00:00]

I was ahead[00:00:07]

I was a seer[00:00:10]

I left for Babylon[00:00:13]

You and Herodias stayed in the wilderness[00:00:15]

I was the one[00:00:19]

With the halo on[00:00:22]

But it was all to no avail[00:00:24]

To know a veil of tears[00:00:27]

When I was John the Baptist[00:00:30]

When I was John the Baptist[00:00:33]

When I was John the Baptist Jones[00:00:37]

Ahead on points ahead of my time[00:00:40]

I was neck and neck with the Kings of Crime[00:00:44]

I worked the rivers I owned my own home[00:00:50]

I was head and shoulders over flesh and bone[00:00:53]

But when you did the dance of the seven veils[00:00:58]

Salome Salome there was[00:01:03]

Only the crockery below me[00:01:08]

I was ahead[00:01:13]

I was a divine[00:01:16]

My success like shampoo [00:01:19]

Washed you clean out of my mind[00:01:21]

How could I know[00:01:25]

The lengths you would go[00:01:28]

When you're ahead of Jesus[00:01:30]

Christ you don't look behind[00:01:32]

When I was John the Baptist[00:01:36]

When I was John the Baptist[00:01:39]

When I was John the Baptist Jones[00:01:42]

Ahead of schedule ahead of the hoard[00:01:45]

I had the Moral Majority drunk as a Lord[00:01:49]

I I ducked adulterers and did it alone[00:01:53]

I was head and shoulders over flesh and bone[00:01:58]

But when you did the dance of the seven veils[00:02:03]

Salome Salome there was[00:02:07]

Only the crockery below me[00:02:12]

Believe me reprieve me can you forgive me[00:02:16]

My sweet Salome can you[00:02:28]

Reprieve me For just one night dear[00:02:35]

You put yourself below me[00:02:46]

Heavens above Salome [00:02:52]

Put yourself below me[00:02:59]

For just one night[00:03:05]
