What are we doing in this country?

O Jesus say come to me now who labor mud and righteousness
Rise The bloody river touches God redeem your blessedness
Yahweh Jesus slow stoop low now Save us in our love and dyin'
Breaking peoples' Please You know It is Our pain they're multiplyin'

Bull flicks quick in Ramses hand the golden cup of wine
Her sickening pace is quickening Pharoahs step it up on down the line
where Momma buckles down I hear her prayer knees givin' 'way
Daddy buckles down big brown bags muddy bloody river clay

Blocks and tackles Astrolabes Rigging Booming inch by inch Jibs
lackin' grease Hear Pops near crackin' Snap like toothpick lumber Ribs
Rolling stones Tons Heavy star tracks drippin' Devil sympathy
Help us Jesus Angels Moses Work through our hegemony

Prove our split is without shame Hell Thebes be routed through the sea
Moses Fling the kingdom down Pops Faith in God brings victory
Let us fold our hands and pray Pops Jesus Angels Moses One
There Alone upon the throne rock Pharoah and his only son
All alone Upon the throne rock Pharoah and his only son
