Lyrics: Cracked Messiah

He looked really tall 'cause his heels were high
They'd puffed him up like a porcupine
So I lifted him up to mortal heights
When ambition kicked me in the eye

How could he act so thoughtlessly
How could it ever come to be
That his great and genial fragile mind
Appeared to be a cavity

A song, a kiss, a twist of fate
That made messiah out to it
With saint-like stigmata only for show

Don't stand in my way
Listen hear what I say
Love comes in different ways

How could he act so thoughtlessly
How could it ever come to be
That his great and genial fragile mind
Appeared to be a cavity

And then the enemy dropped the bomb
Survivors there were none, she said
And smiled, I jerked, I tried again
And failed

Don't stand in my way
Listen hear what I say
Just stay were you are
You're nothing but a fallen star
A cracked messiah is what you are

But we can sing,
We can dance and do the mime
Oh, lay your hand in mine
And maybe I can make you smile
We can sing
Oh, we can drink champagne all night
Don't be afraid, we can lie in bed all day
And just talk about good times

We can sing, na na na..
Yeah we can sing, na na na..
We can sing, na na na..
We can sing, na na na..
