Telling Stories in Words and Pictures and Song
Your Church of Touch
What’ll I do with a priestess like you, my dear
Praying down upon your knees
Then you decide to climb on top
To spread the truth to me
It’s a crime to take your time, you say
Then you stop and turn around
There’s so many lessons to be learned
Lying on the ground
I took you out the other night, you know
To talk and have a meal
You just wanted to get back home
And squeal
And get your soul unsealed
I wonder what will come of me, dear Lord
For lovin’ this too much
Drinkin’ from the sacred cup
In your Church of Touch
One more time for the gods above
Stuck in the dirt or rising in love
Never hurts when you give too much
Give yourself, my sons, to the Church of Touch
(Instr.)
My mama said to me that you
You ain’t the kind to trust
But you know, there ain’t one thing I wouldn’t do
For your Church of Touch
I’d crawl to Hell and back, you know, my dear
It wouldn’t be too much
To fetch a pale of burning coals of pure lust
For your Church of Touch
Lay me down and pick me up, my dear
You know it’s boom or bust
‘til there’s nothing left of me but dust
In your Church of Touch
In your Church of Touch
In your Church of Touch
