The Hold Steady

Cattle and the Creeping Things

They got to the part
With the cattle and the creeping things
Said I'm pretty sure we've heard this one before
Don't it all end up in some revelation

With four guys on horses and violent red visions
Famine and death and pestilence and war?
I'm pretty sure I heard this one before

You in the corner with a good looking drifter
Two cups of coffee and ten packs of sugar
I heard Gideon saw you in Denver
He said you're contagious

Silly rabbit, tripping is for teenagers
Murder is for murderers
And hard drugs are for bartenders
I think I might have mentioned that before

He's got the pages in his pockets
That he ripped out of the Bible
From his bed stand in the motel
He likes the part where the traders
Get chased out from the temple

I guess I heard about original sin
I heard the dude blamed the chick
I heard the chick blamed the snake
I heard they were naked when they got busted

And I heard things ain't been the same
Since you on the streets with a tendency
To preach to the choir
Wired for sound and down with whatever
I heard Gideon did you in Denver

She's got a cross around her neck
That she ripped off from a schoolgirl
In the subway on a visit to the city

She likes how it looks on her chest
With three open buttons

She likes the part where one brother kills the other
She has to wonder if the world ever will recover
'Cause Cain and Abel seem to still be causing trouble

She said I was seeing double
For three straight days after I got born again
It felt strange but it was nice and peaceful
And it really pleased me to be around so many people

Of course, half of them were visions
Half of them were friends from going
Through the program with me

Later on we did some sexy things
Took a couple photographs
And carved them into wood reliefs

But that's enough about me
Come on, tell me how you
Got down here into Ybor City

He said I got to the part about the Exodus
And up to then I only knew
It was a movement of the people

But if small town cops are like swarms of flies
And blackened foil is like boils and hail
I'm pretty sure I've been through this before

It seemed like a simple place to score
And it seemed like a simple place to score
It seemed like a simple place to score
And then some old lady came to the door
And said McKenzie Phillips doesn't live here anymore
