Album: Drop (1995)

Thrill A Minute


There's a peeping tom in the eye of god's house
Shooting insulin as quiet as a church mouse
Tried to clean his bones from a sulfer well
Turned his head couldn't stand the smell
A thrill a minute

Life size crucifix was stolen from the wall
The organist played amazing grace for them all
Hooker in a red skirt testified and repented
While the deacons passed a snake, stared and squinted

A thrill a minute

Paper taxis full of eyes
Chocolate pulpits racing by
Floating boardwalks and candycanes
Cashmere penguins with see through wings

Someone had a spirit, ran up and down the aisle
When the shouting stopped, the choir lay in a pile
Bell ringer pulled the rope and was lifted off his feet
Pastor disrobed, took the money to the street

A thrill a minute
