Q&A
Jerusalem Lyrics
As he entered the room
the poison came alive
with a grin like he wasn't there
So he bit his lip
and took a place by the wall
playing missions and double dare
She said I only see you in the dark
when the law's not around
when they're far too busy to stare
so put me in your band of liberated women
and the liberated men won't care
What a pleasure its been
and while beach boys play for pretty girls
and superman cries for a little help
you paint your face like it's Jerusalem
you lead the way like Jerusalem
Jerusalem
Hang left hang right
But they never went to school
cause who goes to school
when at school you're ruled by fate
She might demand to be around
when you get old
and she'd scream if you made her wait
So she ate all her greens
and took stupid to bed
he'd been fighting all night long
But the second time around she ignored what he said
and hoped he'd get it wrong
what a pleasure its been
and while beach boys play for pretty girls
and superman cries for a little help
you paint your face like it's Jerusalem
you lead the way like Jerusalem
Jerusalem
Hang left hang right
the poison came alive
with a grin like he wasn't there
So he bit his lip
and took a place by the wall
playing missions and double dare
when the law's not around
when they're far too busy to stare
so put me in your band of liberated women
and the liberated men won't care
What a pleasure its been
and superman cries for a little help
you paint your face like it's Jerusalem
you lead the way like Jerusalem
Jerusalem
cause who goes to school
when at school you're ruled by fate
She might demand to be around
when you get old
and she'd scream if you made her wait
and took stupid to bed
he'd been fighting all night long
But the second time around she ignored what he said
and hoped he'd get it wrong
what a pleasure its been
and superman cries for a little help
you paint your face like it's Jerusalem
you lead the way like Jerusalem
Jerusalem
