Lord today there’s no salvation
The band’s packed up and gone
Left me standing with my penny in my hand,
There’s a big crowd at the station
Where the blind man sings his songs
He can see what I can’t understand.
Chorus:
It’s the thirty-third of August
And I’m finally touchin’ down
Eight days from Sunday
Lord and I’m Saturday bound.
Once I stumbled through the darkness
I tumbled to my knees
A thousand voices screamin’ through my brain
Woke up in a squad car
Busted down for vagrancy
Outside my cell as sure as hell
It looks like rain.
CHORUS:
Now I’ve put my dangerous feelings
Under lock and chain
Hide my violent nature with a smile
Though the demons danced and sang their songs
Within my fevered brain
Not all my God-like thoughts
Lord are defiled.
