When Two And Two Are Five — текст песни (Story)

When two and two are five
You`re gonna go to work like any other day
But things might be much different
Your God might be a vengeful one
Your desk might catch on fire
The church will hold a picnic,
and Jesus and Elvis will get in free
When two and two are five
They`ll change the world, make the faithful pay
The trees of the field and maybe the lilies -
They will comfort you
But in the twinkling of an eye there will be nothing,
Two shakes of somebody`s tail - no still small voice
Meanwhile I`m gonna sleep all day,
get half drunk each night
I`ll be the nothing that is, I`ll be the nothing that will be
I`m gonna sleep all day, get half drunk each night
I`ll be the nothing that is, I`ll be the nothing that will be
And in the darkest corners between conscience and faith
(Lord get my room ready, nothing is adding up)
We`ll meet the terrible angel
Straddling our pitiful fathers
Meanwhile I`m gonna sleep all day,
get half drunk each night
I`ll be the nothing that is, I`ll be the nothing that will be
I`m gonna sleep all day, get half drunk each night
I`ll be the nothing that is, I`ll be the nothing that will be
(All day, each night)
