Lyrics

[Verse 1] Talking to a punker priest, just dodging the breeze About being a tree (He says it's free now) Along comes Mary Christ, skating light on ice And says, "Let's go on high" (Later, priestoid) [Chorus 1] Gotta go I got a date now Yeah, I know Shall not be late now [Verse 2] Possessed by X-ray eyes, her spirit spies Into my lies (Let's burn 'em out now) Wraps my head in skin, says now I'm in Dig the candy sin (Yeah, spit it out now) [Chorus 2] Every time She sings that low song Every time I know she's right, wrong [Verse 3] Angel in a devil skirt, buys me a shirt Says, "I hope you like" (I like what now?) "Hope, I hope you like, like you like your hope" Walk the tightest rope (I see, I know now) [Chorus 3] Here we go Been waiting so long Yeah, I know For Mary to come along (Oh) Hey [Verse 1] Talking to a punker priest, just dodging the breeze About being a tree (He says it's free now) Along comes Mary Christ, skating light on ice And says, "Let's go on high" (Later, priestoid) [Chorus 1] Gotta go I got a date now Yeah, I know Shall not be late now [Verse 4] Possessed by X-ray eyes, her spirit spy's Into my lies (Let's burn 'em out now) Angel in a devil skirt, buys me a shirt Says, "I hope you like" (Yeah, spit it out now) [Outro] Here we go Been waiting so long Yeah, I know For Mary to come along (Oh, oh)
