lyrics

The gospel of Mark, the gospel of John,
The gospel of where I have gone.
Where have I gone?
Into the margins vacant and pale,
Here where there is nothing to fear,
From the young idea

Bring on the glitter kids!
And everyone will see what we have done.
Bring on the glitter kids!
And one by one they'll see and they will run.

This is the end of music.
I need to get some sleep.

The gospel of Mark, the gospel of John,
The gospel of all that have unimagined.
They sung us dirges when our eyes were starry,
Rock n' roll means never having to say your sorry.

Bring on the glitter kids!
And everyone will see what we have done.
Bring on the glitter kids!
And one by one they'll see and they will run.

This is the end of music.
I need to get some sleep

Time is drifting backwards,
Wearing Noah's raincoat.
When we hit that rock we'll know,
What will sink and what will float.

Across dead seas of olive trees,
Out where the kids are grievin'
For what they can't believe in,

This is the end of music
I need to get some sleep
