Just sit tight



we wanted jesus to come with the rain
we wanted lightning and thunder insane
we just didn't want them
in our house

we wanted the poor to stay inside
we wanted junkies to lay down and die
we just didn't want them
in our house

the wicked, the sick, the infirm and the lame
are crawling up the sidewalk, our everlasting shame
when they ring the door bell
just sit tight
whatever you do
just sit tight

oh, god, oh my lord
oh, baby, i do get bored
i get bored and then i tremble
oh, baby, the end times are near
i got two tickets, grab me a beer
let us all assemble
on the open plain
on the open plain
the rivers of blood
the deserts of bones
missiles from eagles
bombs from the drones
oh, baby, i do get bored

go tell carl it's okay, or so we say
he sits on the couch and waits for the day
we're sorry
but not in our house

we changed all the locks, got a brand new key
we lost it when we fell down to our knees
we can't find it
in our house

the wicked, the sick, the infirm and the lame
crawling up the sidewalk, our everlasting shame
when they ring the door bell
just sit tight
whatever you do
just sit tight

oh, god, oh my lord
oh, baby, i do get bored
i get bored and then i tremble
oh, baby, the end times are near
i got two tickets, grab me a beer
let us all assemble
on the open plain
on the open plain
the rivers of blood
the deserts of bones
missiles from eagles
bombs from the drones
oh, baby, i do get bored

we wanted jesus to come with the rain
we wanted lightning and thunder insane
we just didn't want them
in our house

we wanted the poor to stay inside
we wanted junkies to lay down and die
we just didn't want them
in our house
