Holy John
Give me food
Tonight I am so hungry
Tonight my eyes are searching
For a way
Holy John
Give me shelter
Tonight I am so weary
Tonight my eyes are open wide
Well the first man was a juggler
And his skill was very great
But he said that he was leaving
He said he couldn't wait
And the second came with jewels
That flickered on his hand
As he spoke about tomorrow
As if it were another land
But a lady caught between them
Said she should be free
But they just looked bewildered
And said yes, so should we
How on earth, yelled the author
Does the tale makes it's sense
It's alive with the truth,
But we must have the proof
How can we open the door
Well the next man had religion
It made him very proud
He said he'd found his inner bliss
He said it very loud
But a group of men surpassed him
With science skills and speed
They hurled down his conceptions
And dug up all his weeds
The lady she looked worried
She asked if this was wise
"Of course it is it's logic
Brains and enterprise
How on earth, yelled the author
Does the tale makes it's sense
It's alive with the truth,
But we must have the proof
How can we open the door
Well the last man had no number
And didn't say a word
He didn't even answer them
When they said he was absurd
They made him sign a treaty
To give up all he owned
And searched his pockets anxiously
To see if he had gold
The lady was enchanted
And said they ought to see
So they charged her with subversion
And made her watch TV
I'm a man with no future
With no past and no time
And I live for the war
Lord I live for the war
I won't be back no more
We are fighting a losing battle
No-one is winning
No-one's beginning
We are looking for something that's missing
Dark all around us
Darkness surrounding
We are on the doorway of knowledge
Have we the wisdom?
Have we the wisdom?
We are fighting a losing battle
No-one is winning
No-one's beginning
Come over the hill little mama
And let me see you smile
You are the one for me
You are the one for me
Come out of the sky little angel
And let me see you be
You are the one for me
You are the one for me
Give me food
Tonight I am so hungry
Tonight my eyes are searching
For a way
Holy John
Give me shelter
Tonight I am so weary
Tonight my eyes are open wide
