about

A strange song, from where it came I dunno
I remember playing this on 'Sight and Sound in concert' performing alongside band The Bible

lyrics

I Pray

I belong common, that conclusion came
After two years of kicking and fifteen years lame
Strangled in a trench coat, on a hot summers day, I pray

Bring on the mongrel, the fool with the hat
Send your stones and your postcards, and your dancing twins books
I'll just keep doing what I always did, put the fish in the sack, I pray

I pray, so dark so long
I pray, so dark so long
I pray!

Him with his ego and me with these hooks
Should get together sometime and Rock this town
Joke to joke, back to back, we meet
Some hectic circus this is, hectic grave
Let difference be difference, I swear these hours are but a waste of time
And amid the hectic circus, and the hectic grave
Bring on yesterday, not today

I pray, so dark so long
I pray, so dark so long
I pray!

And the wind blows everything
That includes mood, name
Pathetic pop stars with shades
Give it blues man!
