Joe Meek Will Inherit the Earth

Lyrics for Joe Meek Will Inherit the Earth

She picked a good time to quit smoking Yeah, she thought she had it made Made to pass the buck, but first she sparked one up Flashing her Zippo like a blade She left a protest in the city With a conscience clear as glass Absolution in a clear solution Like a pickle in a jar Singing, "Charity, charity, charity, charity Charity begins at home Charity, charity, charity, charity Charity begins at home" I rode on into the hinterland I passed a rider following a lamb And he waved at me, he said, "Come and see The bodies sun-baking on the sand" And oh, that sound you're hearing Coming from them locust trees Deep down in a darkened clearing A stranger's scheming against you and me Singing, "Charity, charity, charity, charity Charity begins at home Charity, charity, charity, charity Charity begins at home Charity, charity, charity, charity Charity begins at home Charity, charity, charity, charity Charity begins at home" If you're wondering where it Where it all went wrong If you're wondering, come and see If you're wondering where it Where it all went wrong Come and see And then the moon turned red and waned away Stars fell from the sky Treetops crash and firestorms raged Ash clouds burned our eyes Singing, "Charity begins at home Charity begins at home Charity begins at home" If you're wondering where it Where it all went wrong If you're wondering come and see If you're wondering where it Where it all went wrong Come and see If you're wondering where it Where it all went wrong If you're wondering, come and see If you're wondering where it Where it all went wrong Come and see If you're wondering where it Where it all went wrong If you're wondering where it Where it all went wrong
