Get Down Moses Songtext
von The Interrupters

Once I got to the mountaintop, tell you what I could see
Prairie full of lost souls runnin′ from the priests of iniquity
Where the hell was Elijah?
And what do you do when the prophecy game was through?

(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
We gotta take the walls of Jericho
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
Put your lips together and blow
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
Goin' to the very top
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
Say the truth crystallizes like jewels
In the rock
In the rock


Get down Moses, part another sea
Carve another tablet outta LSD
Get down Moses, out in Tennessee
Get down Moses, down in the street
The blood washin′ down all the gravel to our feet
Get down Moses, down in the pit

Lyin' in a dream, cross a battlefield
Crashin' on a downtown strip
Lookin′ in the eyes of the diamonds and the spies and the hip
Who′s sponsorin' the crack ghetto?
Who′s lecturin'? Who′s in the know and in the don't-know?

(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
You better take the walls of Jericho
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
Put your lips together and blow
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
Goin′ to the very top
(Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na)
Where the truth crystallizes like jewels
In the rock
In the rock


Get down Moses, eagle's aerie
Gotta make new friends outta old enemies
Get down Moses, back in Tennessee
Get down Moses, down with the dreads
They got a lotta reasoning in a dreadhead
Get down Moses, down in the street

Get down Moses, part another sea
Carve another tablet outta LSD
Get down Moses, out in Tennessee
Get down Moses, we need to eat
Gotta chew it over with our wisdom teeth
Get down Moses, yeah
