Give me back my broken night

My secret room, my secret life

Its lonely here

Theres no one left to torture

Give me absolute control

Over every living soul

And lie beside me, baby

Thats an order!

Give me crack and anal sex

Take the only tree thats left

And stuff it up the hole In your culture

Give back the berlin wall

Give me stalin and st. paul

Ive seen the future, brother It is murder

Chorus

Things are going to slide in all directions

Wont be nothing

Nothing you can measure anymore

The blizzard of the world

Has crossed the threshold

And it has overturned

The order of the soul

When they said repent I wonder what they meant

When they said repent

I wonder what they meant

When they said repent

I wonder what they meant

You dont know me from the wind

You never will, you never did Im the little jew

Who wrote the bible

Ive seen nations rise and fall

Ive heard their stories, heard them all

But loves the only engine of survival

Your servant here, he has been told

To say it clear, to say it cold Its over, it aint going

Any further And now the wheels of heaven stop

You feel the devils riding crop

Get ready for the future It is murder

Chorus

Therell be the breaking of the ancient

Western code

Your private life will suddenly explode

Therell be phantoms

Therell be fires in the road

And the white man dancing

Youll see the woman Hanging upside down

Her features covered by her fallen gown

And all the lousy little poets

Coming round

Trying to sound like charlie manson

Give me back the berlin wall

Give me stalin and st. paul

Give me christ

Or give me hiroshima

Destroy another fetus now

We dont like children anyhow

Ive seen the future, baby It is murder

Chorus

Baby, Ive been waiting

Ive been waiting night and day

I didnt see the time

I waited half my life away

There were many invitations

And I know you sent me some

But I was waiting

For the miracle to come

I know you really loved me

But, you see, my hands were tied

I know it must have hurt you

 It must have hurt your pride

To stand beneath my window

With your bugle and your drum

While I was waiting

For the miracle to come

You wouldnt like it baby

You wouldnt like it here

Theres not much entertainment

And the critics are severe

The maestro says its mozart

But it sounds like bubble gum

When youre waiting

For the miracle to come

Chorus

Waiting for the miracle

Theres nothing left to do

I havent been this happy

Since the end of world war ii

Nothing left to do

When you know that youve been taken

Nothing left to do

When youre begging for a crumb

Nothing left to do

When youve got to go on waiting

For the miracle to come

I dreamed about you, baby

It was just the other night

Most of you was naked

But some of you was light

The sands of time were falling

]from your fingers and your thumb

And you were waiting

For the miracle to come

 Baby, lets get married

Weve been alone too long

Lets be alone together

Lets see if were that strong

Lets do something crazy

Something absolutely wrong

While were waiting

For the miracle to come

Chorus

When youve fallen on the highway

And youre lying in the rain

And they ask you how youre feeling

Of course you say you cant complain

If youre squeezed for information

Thats when youve got to play it dumb

You just say youre out there waiting

For the miracle to come
