//SHAKEDOWN
DIRTY LION
you were speaking
in tongues
conversations
was it your god speaking?
were you coming undone?
was it nature
that showed you that
desire
colours all you see
your desire
desire
the only thing you seek
you say you're coming undone
and you've still got
a bad taste in your mouth
from the conversation with the snake that
has left you reeling
and you learned how to crawl
like a real man
now you're like the rest
on your knees
i'll show you that
desire
colours all you see
your desire
desire
is everything
desire
colours all you see
your desire
desire
the only thing you seek
now you're writhing around
in your own mess
cos you lie down with the snakes
naked and so shamed
before god
but still you're speaking in tongues
and your god says:
desire
colours only you see
your desire
desire
is everything
desire
colours only you see
your desire
desire
the only thing you see
// ABOUT THIS SONG
I
can't remember the words. It's an adam and eve story. I am trying to remember
what the actual catalyst was for it. I can't think of it right now. -

This song used to be called "Undone" when theSTART was realeasing
