《John the Baptist Jones》歌词

[00:00:00] John The Baptist Jones - Momus

[00:00:07] I was ahead

[00:00:10] I was a seer

[00:00:13] I left for Babylon

[00:00:15] You and Herodias stayed in the wilderness

[00:00:19] I was the one

[00:00:22] With the halo on

[00:00:24] But it was all to no avail

[00:00:27] To know a veil of tears

[00:00:30] When I was John the Baptist

[00:00:33] When I was John the Baptist

[00:00:37] When I was John the Baptist Jones

[00:00:40] Ahead on points ahead of my time

[00:00:44] I was neck and neck with the Kings of Crime

[00:00:50] I worked the rivers I owned my own home

[00:00:53] I was head and shoulders over flesh and bone

[00:00:58] But when you did the dance of the seven veils

[00:01:03] Salome Salome there was

[00:01:08] Only the crockery below me

[00:01:13] I was ahead

[00:01:16] I was a divine

[00:01:19] My success like shampoo

[00:01:21] Washed you clean out of my mind

[00:01:25] How could I know

[00:01:28] The lengths you would go

[00:01:30] When you're ahead of Jesus

[00:01:32] Christ you don't look behind

[00:01:36] When I was John the Baptist

[00:01:39] When I was John the Baptist

[00:01:42] When I was John the Baptist Jones

[00:01:45] Ahead of schedule ahead of the hoard

[00:01:49] I had the Moral Majority drunk as a Lord

[00:01:53] I I ducked adulterers and did it alone

[00:01:58] I was head and shoulders over flesh and bone

[00:02:03] But when you did the dance of the seven veils

[00:02:07] Salome Salome there was

[00:02:12] Only the crockery below me

[00:02:16] Believe me reprieve me can you forgive me

[00:02:28] My sweet Salome can you

[00:02:35] Reprieve me For just one night dear

[00:02:46] You put yourself below me

[00:02:52] Heavens above Salome

[00:02:59] Put yourself below me

[00:03:05] For just one night
