Alice In Jericho Lyrics by Rita Connolly

Rita Connolly

0

Now the natural part of a Nazarine man
Is the life he'll give for his own blood band
And there's nothing left over for the Philistines too
Not the land they lost, nor the life they knew
And the Prophet's Peace of a thousand years
Meant nothing but blood, means nothing but tears
Now she's probably gone
Now don't you know
Alice tried to live in Jericho
Didn't care about Hebrew's 'Promised Land'
She said "I'll get by as best I can"
When you get a bad mix in a tiny land
Every few damned years it seems
Things get out of hand
Between bandit Princes and the Holy Wars
Spilling blood in his name is a righteous chore
Alice is innocent in a Levantine town
And that's the first kind that the Heroes cut down
Now I don't known if she's really gone
But I'm thinking of the range of an average bomb
Or maybe the knife in a righteous hand
Shortened her life in the Holy Land
But what I hope for her as best of all
Is that she only gopt shaken in the great downfall
Now she's probably gone
Now don't you know
Alice tried to live in Jericho
Didn't care about Hebrew's 'Promised Land'
She said "I'll get by as best I can"
