The Fatima Mansions - Viva Dead Ponies lyrics

(retail groceries...)

Do you know how jesus feels

When he's behind his sportscar wheel

And the windscreen glass is all gummed up with blood?

Do you know how old jesus feels?

For he walks the earth again

But not in mecca or in jerusalem

Nohe sells papers and beer in a shop in crouch end [londonengland]

For he walks the earth again

Chorus:

So viva dead ponies

Come out and fight me

Viva dead ponies

Customers: drop dead

I have switched the fridges off

And I will burn down this whole stinking shop

I will get drunk and I will break every little islamical [sic] law

For I have switched the fridges off--chorus

"i haven't made love in a while.

It's the best way to make a child"

Said jesus to the disciples. he then further said"if you can't shift this crate of brillo pads by fridayvengeance will be mine!"

So viva dead ponies

You're afraid to fight me

Customers--pay what you owe! [...? ]!

Viva dead ponies

Back from the circus

They lunched with jesus

Fire in their noses all goneall gone...
