Wild God

[00:12.38] Once upon a time, a wild God zoomed
[00:17.69] All through his memory in which he was entombed
[00:24.10] It was rape and pillage in the retirement village
[00:29.90] But in his mind he was a man of great virtue and courage
[00:37.27] And he flew out the window with his long, trailing hair
[00:43.23] And the smoke from the bodies went straight up in the air
[00:50.26] He was a wild God searching for what all wild Gods are searching for
[00:56.02] And he flew through the dying city like a prehistoric bird
[01:05.55] He went searching for the girl down on Jubilee Street
[01:11.86] But she'd died in a bedsit in 1993
[01:19.09] So he flew to the top of the world and looked around
[01:23.07] And said, "Where are my people? Where are my people to bring your spirit down?"
[01:32.43]
[02:00.96] A wild God searching for a faraway girl
[02:05.57] Who was basically a mirage but nevertheless loomed large
[02:12.76] She would hang under the rail as he blew 'round the room
[02:18.32] And make love with a kind of efficient gloom
[02:28.62] And the people on the ground cried, "When does it start?"
[02:34.35] And the wild God says, "It starts with a heart, with a heart, with a heart, with a heart"
[02:41.54] And the people on the ground cried, "When does it end?"
[02:47.18] And the wild God says, "Well, it depends, but it mostly never ends
[02:53.85] 'Cause I'm a wild God flying and a wild God swimming
[03:00.49] And I'm an old, sick God dying and crying and singing"
[03:10.62] (Bring your spirit down)
[03:15.48] Oh, we're wild Gods, baby, we're wild Gods
[03:21.23] Yeah, bring your spirit down
[03:26.98] Oh, well, he's moving through the flames of anarchy
[03:31.35] And he's moving through the winds of tyranny
[03:34.33] And the sweet, sweet tears of liberty, yeah, moving 'round the world
[03:43.97] He's moving through your body like a prehistoric bird
[03:49.57] He's moving 'round the world
[03:54.35] Oh Lord, well, if you're feeling lonely and if you're feeling blue
[03:59.86] And if you just don't know what to do
[04:04.86] Bring your spirit down
[04:09.95] Oh, we're wild Gods, baby, we're wild Gods
[04:15.66] I'm a wild God, baby, I'm a wild God
[04:20.22] Oh, here we go, we're going to the cradle of Africa
[04:24.79] We're going to Russia, we're going to China
[04:28.23] To the United States of America
[04:32.05] Yeah, moving 'round the world
[04:37.24] Yeah, moving like a great, big, beautiful bird
[04:43.88] We're moving 'round the world
[04:47.93] Yeah, and he's swimming at the end of the rotting pier
[04:52.92] He swims to the end of his rotting idea
[04:56.54] Swim to the hymn, swim to the prayer and bring your spirit down
[05:04.50] I'm a wild God, baby, I'm a wild God
[05:10.18] Well, here we go, yeah, here we go
[05:13.78]
