Pat McCarthy - Chorus and the Ring lyrics

Hey there now young holy Swing along, quote the scriptures Keep them guessing which pit you crawled from Just defy it, just deny it Was it fun? Your time has come- What have you done? What have you done? [Hook 1] That's when the insults start to sting You can't remember anything The chorus chime in, the Greek chorus The machine of God singing It's the poison that in measures Brings illuminating vision It's the knowing with a wink That we expect in Southern women It's the wolf that knows which root to dig to save itself It's the octopus that crawled back to the sea [Hook 2] That's when the insults start to sting You can't remember anything The chorus chime in, the Greek chorus The machine of God ring! Hammered, shooting plywood in the backyard Laughing cause the racket makes the blackbirds sing Write the holy terror s** the marrow from the bones Singe your own wings burning books You got the chorus and the ring [Hook 3] That's when the insults start to sting You can't remember anything The chorus chime in, the Greek chorus The machine sings [Hook 3] That's when the calibration brittle As a stick gets you the gold ring And the tar museum Che Guevara wink Gold ring Gold ring Sing...
