Tori Amos - Unrepentant Geraldines Lyrics
Matthew, Mark, John, and Luke(This is the day of reckoning)Mamma looks to you for truth(With the heart of St. Catherine)No need to apologize(For the gypsy madonna )Truth is not always kind(Jesus hosanna )Peter and Paul they did condemn(This is the day of reckoning)Women like the Magdalene(She you said the savior loved best)Now you ask me if I agree(Our patron St. Cecilia )With the unrepentant geraldines(Jesus hosanna)Chapel of birdsWe sing our song revise the wordWill you prayPray for me unrepentant geraldines?I’m gonna free myself from your opinionI’m gonna heal myself from your religionI’m gonna free myself from your aggressionI’m gonna heal myself from your religionOur Father of Corporate Greed (this is the day of reckoning)You absolve corporate thieves (they will give the Judas kiss)As our governments relent (guess who gets them elected)And turn a blind eye to your sin (jesus hosanna)Chapel of birdsWe sing our song revise the wordWill you prayPray for me unrepentant geraldines?I’m gonna free myself from your opinionI’m gonna heal myself from your religionI’m gonna free myself from your aggressionI’m gonna heal myself from your religionIf you find the Vicar’s wifeRunning through the rainOn her way from St. JamesTo Mary’s in the fieldYou’ll find she plays guitarSometimes with her bandBut she plays the bass like a MessiahIf you find the Vicar’s wifeStaring out to seaPraying for one more soulWe lose one every weekThere she will light a flameAsking why they’ve goneWhat are we not givingGiving to the young?You’ll find she plays guitarSometimes with her bandBut she plays the bass like a MessiahIf you find the Vicar’s wifeRunning through the rainOn her way from St. JamesTo Mary’s in the fieldOn her way from St. JamesTo Mary’s inMary’s inIn the field
