wave good bye and the sparks fade
into the night, yeah.
And the hard headed miracle worker who bathes his hands in blood,
will welcome you to the final "nod" and cover your with mud. And he'll
say you really should make a deal as he offers 'round the hat. You'd better
lick two fingers clean--he'll thank you all for that.
And as you join the Good Ship Earth, and you mingle with the dust.
You'd better leave your underpants with someone you cn trust. And the old
man with the telescope cuts the final strand--
you'd better lick two fingers clean before you shake his hand.
