• The Trailing Skirts of God

i'm seven years old

And my bow-tie's askew

Gonna get somebody of jesus christ

In a brown velvet suit

All the girls are dressed like angels

How sweetly they sang

Oh be not afraid

Of us delicate meringues

The trailing skirts of god

The trailing skirts of god

The trailing skirts of god

Have passed on by

It's five years later

And i'm on my knees again

I am here to confirm

What my parents began

And i promise to abstain

From intoxicating liquor

But the flesh it is weak

And my faith was never stronger

The trailing skirts of god

The trailing skirts of god

Yeah the trailing skirts of god

Have passed on by

But oh how i cling on

'cause it's been a rich seam of song

And though it's make-believe

Can i bring myself to leave?

This lie's been burning too long

Sometimes in my teens

Up in kellyer's bedroom

Skipping on saturday evening mass

For some solvent abuse

And as the world spun around me

And i eased to the floor

Must remember to get that sermon

Keep the wolf from the door yeah

The trailing skirts of god

The trailing skirts of god

Oh trailing skirts of god

Have passed on by

Passed on by passed on by

I've drifted far from you

In this bloodless coup

I've drifted far from you

I've drifted far from you

In this bloodless coup

I say good day and adieu

I've drifted far from you

In this bloodless coup

I've drifted far from you

I've drifted far from you

In this bloodless coup

I say good day and adieu
