lyrics

LET US SPLIT THIS HOLY WATER AND A CIGARETTE WE'RE ATONING FOR OUR SINS AND WE'RE NOT DONE YET THE WATER'S STRONG SO TAKE IT IN SHORT SIPS AND WHEN THE WATER'S GONE I'LL ANNOINT YOU WITH MY LIPS

THAT COME HITHER COUNTANENCE MAKES ME GLAD THAT YOU CALLED AND DIPPED TO GET YOUR HIPS PRESSED AGAINST OUR WAILING WALL BABY DOLL OUR CRIES RISE AND FALL WE WON'T REST OUR EYES UNTIL WE'RE BOTH ABSOLVED

NOW LET'S HIT THE LIQUOR STORE AND TURN THIS WATER INTO WINE IT'S A NIGHTLY PILGRIMAGE AND IT SUITS ME JUST FINE DRINK DEEP AND TELL ME WHAT THE STARS REMIND YOU OF AND WHEN THE BOTTLE'S GONE I'LL BAPTIZE YOU IN LOVE

THAT COME HITHER COUNTANENCE MAKES ME GLAD THAT YOU CALLED AND DIPPED TO GET YOUR HIPS PRESSED AGAINST OUR WAILING WALL BABY ALL NIGHT WHEN YOU COME TO THE PAD OH YOU GET NO SLEEP ALL NIGHT ALL NIGHT THE WAY YOU ROLL ME SLOW LETS ME KNOW YOU PLAY FOR KEEPS AND IT'S OUT OF SIGHT
