There's an effigy of Gandhi with a greasy bag of chips
Stacy on her knees wiping blood from her lips
A portrait in a café from the turn of the war
Time slips through her fingers no matter how tight she grips
Don't let it slip -You'd better write this down
There’s black in the roots on her head of dyed hair
She's lost in the crowd she could be anywhere
There’s a patient in a bath chair on the promenade
Her third rate mortgage goes the whole nine yards
Don't let it slip - You'd better write this down
Now here in the real world with explosives in her shoes
Dancing in the fountain on the nine o'clock news
There's a clansmen in her garden burning a cross
He's the television preacher that she won't let through
Don't let it slip - You'd better write this down
With all the noise in here, oh there will never be a better chance to make it out
And while the jitter goes on the voice of reason stops singing the song
Trouble in the garden; Adam says to Eve
“There's maggots in this apple like you would not believe”
There's a janitor in the jungle looking so old school
Well the serpent's telling Stacy “I have nothing up my sleeve”
Don't let it slip - You'd better write this down
A Coup d'etat in the morning but nothing has changed
By lunchtime she was happy so we disengaged
But the citadel thinks sleeping is the seal of power
But Stacy knows the key is never being afraid
Don't let it slip - You'd better write this down
With all the noise in here, there will never be a better chance to make it out
And while the jitter goes on the voice of reason stops singing the song
