the messiah has come and gone
left half a dozen flags to stake his claim
maybe i should jump up
start singing the national anthem
lie belly up in the sun
blistering out like a bottle of beer
i've got to slow dive
into the country to calm my nerves
i'm only dancing on the rooftops
thinking about what i've got to do
maybe i'll get drunk
and change the world some other day
this is a great great divide
this is a great great divide
this is a great great divide
and there was nothing in between
the musicians have left the building
oh god i'll never meet them now
wanted them to sign my chest
and wish me a happy christmas
oh well there's always next time
tonight i'm gonna cut off my hand
watch the blood it curls down
put a smile on the face of my friend
i'm only dancing on the rooftops
thinking about what i've got to do
maybe i'll get drunk
and change the world some other day
this is a great great divide
this is a great great divide
this is a great great divide
and there was nothing in between
and there was nothing in between
