Clean

I had a dream last night

Where you came into my arms

And I held you so tight

The sky was black and in the streets

I watched a thousand babies burn

How can I get myself, get myself clean?

I watched a thousand babies burn

How can I get myself, get myself clean?

It's gonna take a million waterfalls

To wash away the sin

The sun went black and for its kiss

I nailed a thousand silver nails

Into my saviour's wrists

And he said, "Girl, see what I mean?

It's gonna take a million waterfalls

To wash yourself, wash yourself clean"

I watched these thousand babies burn

And in the midst of my, midst of my dream

I watched these thousand babies burn

Baby, burn, baby, burn

Clean

I watched these thousand babies burn

Baby, burn, baby, burn

[Interlude]

The sun went black and for its kiss

I nailed a thousand silver nails

Into my saviour's wrists

And he said, "Girl, see what I mean?

It's gonna take a million waterfalls

To wash yourself, wash yourself clean"

I watched these thousand babies burn

And in the midst of my, midst of my dream

I watched these thousand babies burn

Baby, burn, baby, burn

Clean

I watched these thousand babies burn

Baby, burn, baby, burn
