| He made an enemy then, he made an enemy of all of you, it's him, not you | |
| You never heard it from me but there's a breach in the hull where the truth and the water's too deep to prove | |
| He made an enemy then, he made an enemy of all of you, it's him, not you | |
| It's a little red sea let the miracle worker go free | |
| See the paddle go up and the paddle go down | |
| And the paddle go up and the paddle go down | |
| And the paddle go up and the paddle go down | |
| And the man falls in the sea | |
| He was a man of many nations, had a hundred souls and a hundred to go | |
| He was a man of many nations, two hearts, two hands, it's a slippery slope | |
| He had a fear of being naked, but you're any other man in another man's clothes | |
| He was a man of many nations, with revelations, oh revelations | |
| He wrote a book about the Bible and he, he wrote a book about men in the sky | |
| He wrote a book about the smell of winter in two, a little less simple to decipher | |
| Saying, “I am the water at the foot of the palms or I am sand and wind and a shitty mirage | |
| but either way, I'm a man of many nations!” | |
| Was it the mending of the gown, or the running it around? | |
| Was it the mending of the gown, or the running, and the running it around? | |
| She had a name, she had a spirit, she had a line in the play if you waited to hear it | |
| But a master of disguises, her demise was her design, they said | |
| Was it the mending of the gown, or the running, and the running, and the running it around? | |
| She said my name and my spirit are both corrupt and if you hold me close, you gotta hold me up | |
| It was the tender mending of this slender gown that brought me bending to the ground | |
| Now you'll wear any old thing, oh you'll wear any old thing | |
| So she left herself in swallowing up the fever to the air to a broken wing | |
| It's an act, I think she's just pretending, it's an act, I think, she's just pretending | |
| If you burn the virgin flags, then I will shake, (shake!) as the heat waves in the sand | |
| This one's for Maggie (This one's for Maggie) this one's for Sam (This one's for Sam) | |
| This one's for Maggie (This one's for Maggie) this one's for Sam (This one's for Sam) | |
| Or any other random spirit lover busted, I have lusted after you | |
| The way bloodsuckers do, the way bloodsuckers do, the way bloodsuckers do! | |
| Was it the mending of the gown, or the running it around? | |
| Was it the mending of the gown, or the running and the running and the running and the running it around? | |
| It was the tender mending of this slender gown that brought me bending to the ground | |
| But this ship was built to go down | |
| See the paddle go up and the paddle go down! | |
| And the paddle go up and the paddle go down! | |
| And the paddle go up and the paddle go down! | |
| And the paddle go up and the paddle go down! |
| He made an enemy then, he made an enemy of all of you, it' s him, not you | |
| You never heard it from me but there' s a breach in the hull where the truth and the water' s too deep to prove | |
| He made an enemy then, he made an enemy of all of you, it' s him, not you | |
| It' s a little red sea let the miracle worker go free | |
