Craig Finn - Saint Peter Upside Down Şarkı Sözleri

They caught up with Simon Peter
They hung him upside down.
They took the fisherman's ring off his finger
They hung him upside down.
We all gotta sell out somebody sometimes.
Gotta take care of ourselves right now.
Meet me in the booth in the back by the bathroom
St. Peter's hanging upside down.

I was watching out the window.
I was shaking off the evening.
I was leaning on my faith.

They caught up with Simon Peter
They hung him upside down.
Nero Augustus Caesar
And the cross under the crown
We all gotta sell out somebody sometimes
Gotta take care of ourselves right now.
Meet me in the booth in the back by the bathroom
St. Peter's hanging upside down.

Can you hear me Mother Mary?
I'm unsteady in the lobby.
Would you send someone to get me?
I'm barely hanging on like some claymation fawn
In the blue light of dawn
Now she's up in her room. She's watching Disney cartoons.
She always cries when they're kissing the prince.

They surrounded Simon Peter.
The soldiers knocked him down.
They tore the fisherman's ring from his finger.
They hung him upside down.

I cam into the city I was searching for this one specific girl
I met her in 1999 up in Windows on the World
I was desperate to make a connection.
I was from another planet. It was very far away.

They caught up with Simon Peter.
They hung him upside down.
They took the fisherman's ring off his finger.
They hung him upside down.
We all gotta sell out somebody sometimes.
Kid you gotta lay your burden down.
I'm speeding through Saturday morning.
St. Peter's hanging upside down.

They surrounded Simon Peter.
The soldiers knocked him down.
Nero Augustus Caesar
And the cross under the crown.
We all gotta sell out somebody sometimes.
Let's just keep it cool for right now.
Meet me in the booth in the back by the bathroom.
St. Peter's hanging upside down.
