Lyrics
1| The Valley of Jezreel
In the Dawn I wrestle with my love,
in the grass of the valley of Jezreel.
We wrestle to be the god,
of the first light of morning
if she wins I’ll hear the birds sing
and watch her come in glory(overlap)
The pure light of morning pouring down
makes a gold light on the mountain
In pink rays and purple flame
In Jezreel we will be chosen
Either of us could win
and take up the robe.
and we’re locked together here
twisting all in the grass
You will take hold of my arm
I’ll grab the softness of your leg
we will move with the push and pull
as the sun spills down
and the dew is cool
and my foot will slip
in the cool, cool grass
now we are the morning…
Rise up and spill down
press flat the grass of the valley.
And the Falcon, he looks out
as we wrestle on the plains of Jezreel
Our sweat mixed with dew
as the mountain retreats
do I take the upper hand?
Or should I give her victory?
In the Dawn I wrestle with my love
In the grass of the valley of Jezreel.
In pink rays and purple flame
In Jezreel we are chosen!
2| In a one-piece (on the high dive)
I see you on the diving board,
you’re in my head in a never-ending loop.
You were twenty feet above me
in a gorgeous one-piece bathing suit
on the high dive!
In a one-piece!
With a Big splash
Off the high dive
In the deserts of the East
In black robes made of wool
We’ll walk
Underneath the flaming sky
You get so much hang time
the waves are throwing water over me
That’s the way I picture you
Jumping off to crash down into blue
on the high dive!
in a one-piece!
with a big splash
off the high dive
now I’m taking off my suit
and balling it up in my hand
to throw,
at the head of the one I love
(Instrumental break)
I see you on the diving board,
in a gorgeous one-piece bathing suit.
3| Sneakers and Skirts
She said, “I need a new pair of shoes,
cause I’m on my feet all day long.”
I said “I’ve got something for you”
“Something that can not go wrong”
Get some low tops with a long skirt and the boys will fall at your feet.
Cozy on the job and hot as shit out on the street.
I think you’re some kinda magnet
and I’m pieces of Iron
leaning in towards you.
From my store I watched as the thief
he took off down the mall.
The other girls ran after him,
but they tripped at every step
You came down on him like you were a mountain side
Underneath, in satin, I saw what your skirt tried to hide
And she wore her sneaks everyday
and she wore her long skirt too
until I let her go
And Now, What I need to know,
Is if you’ve though about kissing me
and I’m scared to ask you this
in your calf-lengths and low tops
You can come down on me like you were a mountain side
Keep your sneaks on and hitch your skirt up high.
And she wore her sneaks everyday
and she wore her long skirt too
until I let her go
