Beware A Holy Whore by Knife In The Water Lyrics

Beware a holy whore
Translucent man-o-war
And the needles on the beach

When you come up against the law
They will always ride you raw
With eternal overreach

Walk upright, show your cleanest hand
Nothing comes too easy
Trouble always waits up late for thee

Behold, a hit and run
The long suffering son
The Infant of Prague

Upon the mercy of the court
For want to cut this torture short-
Would you euthanize a dog?

Walk upright, show your cleanest hand
Nothing comes too easy
Trouble always waits up late
Beware the holier than thou
Who yoke you to the gospel plow
And the tundra of the north

You remain an irish child
You were born afraid of the dark
Yet you always barrel forth
