  • She says sometimes she sees these things
    Right before they're happening
    Hail Mary full of grace
    Some nights she swears she feels her face
    She's known a couple boys that died
    And two of them were crucified
    And the last one had enlightened eyes
    But the first guy he was jesus Christ

    Hey Judas - I know you made a grave mistake
    Hey Peter - you've been pretty sweet since easter break
    Now she's four a.m. and she's wide awake
    She's shivering and smiling
    Let's clutch and kiss and sing and shake
    And now lets try to levitate
    You catholic girls you stop much too late

    Baby lets transverberate
    Baby lets transverberate
    Baby lets transverberate

    And she saw all the footage right before it got cut
    And she saw all the bodies and she saw the blood
    She saw the angel put a sword in his side
    And baby thats how we got canonized

    She saw him gushing blood right before it got cut
    She saw him put a body in a bag in the trunk
    She saw the guys coming in from the sides
    And baby thats how we get energized
    She said you know I'm down to pay for it
    She said just grab me some indulgences

    'Cause I've been mostly dying
    And I've been mostly [unknown]
    And I've been mostly crying
    And I've been thinking 'bout both crosses

    She saw the film right before it came out
    And at first she thought judas might go for the mouth
    And she saw the nails and she saw the hands
    She saw the crowd and she heard the band
    And the new kid begged them not to do it
    And jesus just said hey I still love you judas
    Since you've been up in Massachusetts

    I've been dreaming about dos cruces
    And I've been thinking about both crosses
    And ive been dreaming about dos cruces
    Yea I've been thinking about both crosses Writer/s: C FINN, J KUBLER
