I've got this phosphorescent portrait of gentle Jesus meek and mild I've got this harlot that I'm stuck with carrying another man's child The solitary star announcing vacancy burnt out as we arrived They'd throw us back across the border if they knew that we survived And they were surprised to see us So they greeted us with palms They asked for ammunition, acts of contrition and small alms I might recite a small prayer If I ever said them I lay down on an iron frame Found myself in bedlam I wish that I could take something for drowning out the noise Wailing echoes down the corridors I've got this imaginary radio, and I'm punching up the dial I've got the A.C. trained on the T.V. so it won't blow up in my eye And everything that I thought fanciful and mocked as too extreme Must be family entertainment here in the strange land of my dreams Now I'm practicing my likeness of St. Francis of Assisi For if I hold my hand outstretched A little bird comes to me I might recite a small prayer If I ever said them I lay down on an iron frame Found myself in bedlam Escaping from the fingers that were stretching
