The Great Divide Songtext / Lyric

A fever that makes you

Wanna shed your skin

A walking testament to original sin

Gotta good trick up your sleeve

Crocodile daydream, you wanna

You wanna believe



Strike a truce and stand at ease

Or you can choose to slam me to my knees



Cheap resistance, in my way

I wanna become your Independence Day

Give me something for the shape I'm in

Southern comfort oh,

Again and again and again and again



Missionary if you please

I fell from grace and landed on my knees






(chorus)

Welcome to the great divide

Fallen angel stuck inside

All temptation justified



I'm a prisoner baby, with no reprieve

The kind of chaos you can

Count on not to leave



Strike a truce and stand at ease

You can even slam me to my knees



(repeat chorus)



And if the money don't get ya

Something will

And if the sex don't get ya, nothing will

Bank of Karma won't loan

Your yin won't yang

The bed don't bang

And the springs don't sprang

Again and again and ahhhhhhhh...



(repeat chorus)



Welcome to the great divide, great divide

Welcome to the great divide, great divide

The great divide, great divide
