The Next Messiah

Livin' in the meadow, the mighty, mighty meadow

With too many people suckin' all the water

And my daddy was a farmer, he was a race car driver

He is a four leaf clover, he is the next messiah

Now he's livin' in the woods, the dark and dank woods

With a cocktail waitress who thinks she's an artist

Take her down to the river, split her right up the middle

Now it's gonna be trouble for a pregnant lamb and a con man

Now he sick in the clink, got his head in the sink

And the tumor gonna make a man outta him

Now my daddy was a chancer, he was a bad check bouncer

But he beat that cancer, he is a survivor

He's the next messiah

He's the next messiah

He's the next messiah

He's the next messiah

You cover it up, squeezin' it out

You're watchin' it bleed

You're watching' it all, takin' it back

She's down on her knees

When did she come to detest you?

Givin' it back, backin' you up

Nothin's for free

You're givin' it back for lockin' you up

Those terrible deeds

When will they come to arrest you?

When did she come to detest you?

When will they come to arrest you?

When did she come to detest you?

I'm gonna give my love to you one day, gotta bring it back

I'm gonna give my love to you one day, you gotta bring it back

I'm gonna give my love to you one day, gotta bring it back

(I want to tell you I love you, I want to tell you I love you)

I'm gonna give my love to you one day, you gotta bring it back

(I want to tell you I love you, I want to tell you I love you)

I want to tell you I love you, I want to tell you I love you

(I want to tell you I love you, I want to tell you I love you)

Well, I'm gonna go out for a walk, you better be here when I get back

I want to tell you I love you, I want to tell you I love you

I'm gonna go out walkin' babe, you better be here when I get back

Ooh

Ooh

Well, I'm gonna give my love to you one day, you gotta bring it back

I'm gonna give my love to you one day, gotta bring it back

I want to tell you I love you, I want to tell you I love you

Ooh

He's the next messiah

He's the next messiah

He's the next messiah

He's the next messiah
