Go Home Bible Mike Lyrics

    ("one was taking the gate down today and one reads the bible.")

    Welcome to apeville! now you're a citizen, too
    Meet mrs. doreen pompidou
    She'd like to do the shimmy on top of you
    The wall is coming down
    The one which holds the house up
    A brass band playing in a dumptruck
    Is visible through clouds of brickdust
    As people dressed as cows form an orderly queue
    For a drug that makes you dead for a second or two
    I raise myself from my punchbowl, drowning:
    "the yakuza are singing--it can't be true!"

    Go home, bible mike!

    Her hand squeezes mine and i shudder
    She says, "that was one shock, now here comes another
    You really don't remember, do you?"
    I said, "why? am i supposed to?
    Me, the slut of dishevelled women
    Whom fun has made sad and careless?"
    And she's knocked me onto the greasy floor
    And a eunuch is barring the only door
    Pilar, in her room above the farmacia,
    Smiles as she pictures your little thing
    Imagine her surprise when she looks through the window
    And sees you riddled with bullets while the cops all sing,

    "go home, bible mike!
    Go home, bible mike!
    You preach without a right
    Go home, bible mike!"

    You don't make me laugh, you don't make me horny,
    So what the hell are we doing here?
    Gasping all night in this nazi city
    You bit it, i'm bleeding, we're sliding in my blood
    Fucking with my blood
    Market my blood! market my blood!

    You got a tourist mind
    Deaf, numb and blind to all the pain you bring
    This is more than just sin
    "am i really such a nightmare? if i had a home i'd go there."

    Anytime you like
    This court says, "take a hike"
    The slate will not be wiped
    Just go home, bible mike
    Go home, bible mike....
