When I saw you in the garden of Gethsemane
Drunk when you realized the plan
You fell into the arms of Mary Magdalene
The f stigmata on your hands
When the sky fell down on Calvary
I saw the light shining in your eyes
CHORUS
Cos you and mbaby we were born 10,000 years ago
I know it sounds crazy but we got 10,000 more to go
We followed behind the sisters to La Hegera
Saw Ramos kiss like Judus on the wire
When they cut his hair and laid him out like Jesus
I know October '67 John Lennon lied
Sgt Pepper could not help us
When the flowers died I realised
CHORUS
In 2129 IÕm gonna meet you in a cantina in Carleta
IÕm gonna put Bessie Smith on the jukebox all night long
When the Spanish sun comes up on our empty cups
Gonna take you dancing
stain of stigmata on your hands
When the sky fell down on Calvary
I saw the light shining in your eyes
CHORUS
Cos you and me gonna put Bessie Smith on the jukebox all night long
When the Spanish sun comes up on our empty cups
Gonna take you dancing deep down into the dawn
One bright morning when we meet St Peter
I aint gonna give a damn if he donÕt let us in
CHORUS
Drunk when you realized the plan
You fell into the arms of Mary Magdalene
The f stigmata on your hands
When the sky fell down on Calvary
I saw the light shining in your eyes

Cos you and mbaby we were born 10,000 years ago

This is almost like a twist on Rolling Stone's "Sympathy for the Devil". Pleased to meet you, what's your name?
This song is about like, Jesus and Lucifer/the Devil over many thousands of years. It's set in our future, and Jesus and Lucifer meet in a cantina to listen to Bessie Smith and reminisce.
How cool is that?

Actually - if you read the lyrics as posted above - it's not cool at all.

You didn't read them, did you?... No, thought not. Kinda makes your comments redundant, don't you think? I mean, commenting on rubbish!
