About the Artist
Lyrics
Birds against a heavy wind that wins in the end One of these days, with shorts full of sand One of these days, you'll kill a man For asking a question you don't understand Some have passion Some have purpose You have sneakin' backstage to hound the girls in the circus You've opened the Bible in a public place You've opened the Bible to the very first page And one of these days, it will all end Your tired approach to original sin You've been betting on horses named "Johnny Come Lately" You've been high on the hog And the dogs seem to hate you You once was a baby and now a jerk Standing close to the pyre, manning fireworks Once a perfect little baby Who's now a jerk Standing close to the pyre, manning fireworks
