John The Baptist — текст песни (Martyn John And Beverly)

I`m John the baptist and this is my friend Salome
And you can bet it`s my head she wants and not my heart only
If you see me smiling and you wonder why
You can bet it`s a private joke between her and I
And it`s all alright Everything`s alright
Alright Everything`s alright
She dances for me in the midnight moon
And when I play for her she never sings too soon
When my head`s cut off and I`m lying on the plate
I`m going to grin and tell myself it`s been a lovely wait

With the revelations granted and my face just ?like a? haunted
See myself on the nursery wall on a poster reading `Wanted`
And there`s a big reward for bringing me in
And I know in my very heart I committed no sin
