See My Ships

Violent Femmes

See my ships, they are sailing
In and out of the harbor
Will they go together
Or must they stay apart?
Yes, I know it's in my heart

Surely you see what's inside of me
Jesus is coming soon
I can hear Gabriel blow his trumpet tune
This I know, this I know
Our Lord is coming soon

Mercy, mercy me
Marvin Gaye, he was shot by his father
O, my Father
Have mercy on me

Cold Kane, o, my cheap thrill
O my shame for Cain and the Devil
Momma, I need water
I'm thirsty, surely you see
What's inside of me
