Lyrics

Manalapan Road

Living cheaper than one
Some time ago
Between two Main Streets
On Manalapan Road.
You were working with archetypes
Hey Hosanna
I was interpreting
The lower arcana.

There’s a history of war you know
So we’ve been told
There’s The War of Independence, baby
Right down this road.
Fire behaving as air
Lambs to the slaughter
Lead us to thy peaceful shore
Earth behaving as water.

Living quicker than some
Briefly fate forebode
Between two Main Streets
On Manalapan Road
You were working with archetypes
Hey Hosanna
I was interpreting
The lower arcana.
