   She chose the soft  center

                              Fm/C
And took it to bed with her mother

And the ideal confusion

Was just an illusion

To gain further news of her bro - ther

Was just an appeal for protection

        Ab            Gb
For the cat from next door

Was found later at four

And I just can't see through to him

         Ab      Gb
For his cardinal sings

Db                 Ab
   A collection of  hymns

         Bbm                      Fm/C  Cm
And a collection of coins is made after

Ab                   Db/Ab
   And who wrote the Bible

                  Fm/C
Was it Judas or Pilate

     Ab             Gb
Well one cleans his hands

          Db        Ab
While the other one hangs

But still I continue to stand
