Jerusalem Tomorrow

Man you should have seen me way back then[00:00:06]

I could tell a tale I could make it spin[00:00:13]

I could tell you black was white[00:00:18]

I could tell you day was night[00:00:22]

Not only that I could tell you why[00:00:25]

Back then I could really tell a lie[00:00:31]

Well I'd hire a kid to say he was lame[00:00:37]

Then I'd touch him and I make him walk again[00:00:44]

Then I'd pull some magic trick[00:00:50]

I'd pretend to heal the sick[00:00:53]

I was takin' everything they had to give[00:00:56]

It wasn't all that bad a way to live[00:01:03]

Well I'm in this desert town and it's hot as hell[00:01:09]

But no one's buyin' what I got to sell[00:01:16]

I make my lame kid walk[00:01:22]

I make a dumb guy talk[00:01:25]

I'm preachin' up a storm both night and day[00:01:28]

But everyone just turns and walks away[00:01:35]

Well I can see that I'm only wasting time[00:01:41]

So I head across the road to drink some wine[00:01:47]

This old man comes up to me he says I seen you on the street[00:01:53]

You're pretty good if I do say so myself[00:02:00]

But the guy comes through here last month[00:02:06]

He was somethin' else[00:02:08]

Instead of callin' out for fire from above[00:02:12]

He just gets real quiet and talks about love[00:02:19]

And I'll tell you somethin' funny[00:02:25]

He didn't want nobody's money[00:02:28]

Now I'm not exactly sure[00:02:32]

What this all means[00:02:34]

But it's the d**nest thing[00:02:38]

I swear I've ever seen[00:02:39]

Well since that time every town is the same[00:02:57]

I can't make a dime I don't know why I came[00:03:03]

I decide I'll go and find him[00:03:09]

And find out who's behind him[00:03:12]

He has everyone convinced that he's for real[00:03:15]

Well I figure we can work us out a deal[00:03:22]

So he offers me a job and I say fine[00:03:28]

He says I'll get paid off on down the line[00:03:35]

Well I guess I'll string along[00:03:41]

Don't see how too much can go wrong[00:03:43]

As long as he pays my way I guess I'll follow[00:03:47]

We're headed for Jerusalem tomorrow[00:03:53]
