Blessed Evening - Foetus

As this blessed evening falls

Turn your back against the wall

And protect your hands and face

As you shield yourself from slings and arrows

Keep your eye upon the sparrow

As this blessed evening falls

Moonlight over Montreal

Don’t try to resist arrest

'Cos they’ll smack you down before they cuff you

Plant some drugs then try to snuff you

And the South will rise again

And we’ll be in bed by ten

But just don’t assume that you’re my friend

And we’ll shoot until there’s sparks colliding

As this blessed evening falls

Don’t forget the alcohol

I can smell it on your breath

With a message from your undertaker

Stuffed in a martini shaker

As this blessed evening falls

Turn your back against the wall

And protect your hands and face

As you shield yourself from slings and arrows

Keep your eye upon the sparrow

And the South will rise again

And we’ll be in bed by ten

But just don’t assume that you’re my friend

And we’ll shoot until there’s sparks colliding

When this blessed evening falls

As this blessed evening falls
