TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

i was run over by the truth one day.
ever since the accident i've walked this way
so stick my legs in plaster
tell me lies about vietnam.

heard the alarm clock screaming with pain,
couldn't find myself so i went back to sleep again
so fill my ears with silver
stick my legs in plaster
tell me lies about vietnam.

every time i shut my eyes all i see is flames.
made a marble phone book and i carved out all the names
so coat my eyes with butter
fill my ears with silver
stick my legs in plaster
tell me lies about vietnam.

i smell something burning, hope it's just my brains.
they're only dropping peppermints and daisy-chains
so stuff my nose with garlic
coat my eyes with butter
fill my ears with silver
stick my legs in plaster
tell me lies about vietnam.

where were you at the time of the crime?
down by the cenotaph drinking slime
so chain my tongue with whisky
stuff my nose with garlic
coat my eyes with butter
fill my ears with silver
stick my legs in plaster
tell me lies about vietnam.

you put your bombers in, you put your conscience out,
you take the human being and you twist it all about
so scrub my skin with women
chain my tongue with whisky
stuff my nose with garlic
coat my eyes with butter
fill my ears with silver
stick my legs in plaster
tell me lies about vietnam.

why jonah?

1 et praeparavit Dominus piscem grandem ut degluttiret Ionam et erat Iona in ventre piscis tribus diebus et tribus noctibus
2 et oravit Iona ad Dominum Deum suum de utero piscis
3 et dixit clamavi de tribulatione mea ad Dominum et exaudivit me de ventre inferni clamavi et exaudisti vocem meam
4 et proiecisti me in profundum in corde maris et flumen circumdedit me omnes gurgites tui et fluctus tui super me transierunt
5 et ego dixi abiectus sum a conspectu oculorum tuorum verumtamen rursus videbo templum sanctum tuum
6 circumdederunt me aquae usque ad animam abyssus vallavit me pelagus operuit caput meum
7 ad extrema montium descendi terrae vectes concluserunt me in aeternum et sublevabis de corruptione vitam meam Domine Deus meus
8 cum angustiaretur in me anima mea Domini recordatus sum ut veniat ad te oratio mea ad templum sanctum tuum
9 qui custodiunt vanitates frustra misericordiam suam derelinquunt
10 ego autem in voce laudis immolabo tibi quaecumque vovi reddam pro salute Domino
11 et dixit Dominus pisci et evomuit Ionam in aridam
