Who are we sometimes I wonder
Mercenaries or lovers
On this side of the thunder
It can be awful hard to know
Sell our love for the paycheck or
Spend the night on the freight deck
For all the dues that we collect
Our hearts can be overdrawn
Dead in the water
Like lamb to the slaughter
If the wind doesnât sing her song
And Iâm speaking in tongues
Cause I need a Holy Ghost
The geeks they can smell when youâre coming
Even out in the cold
Theyâll wait you out yeah
Theyâll grind you down
But theyâre gonna get what theyâre owed
I know the red thread unravels
I know youâre blue and youâre black
But thereâs still time if you donât mind
The way that the odds are stacked
Dead in the water
Lamb to the slaughter
If the wind doesnât sing her song
And Iâm speaking in tongues
Cause I need a Holy Ghost
