Lyrics
These small town cops couldn't tell their ass from a hole in the ground.
You know how rumors get spread around this little town,
I don't know how much they found.
But I guess it was enough to put him away,
and Jimmy ain't coming back for a couple of hundred days.
and when he does he won't be the same.
Cassandra came out to all the hardcore shows.
Then one night during our set her ex-boyfriend just broke her nose.
Anyway, we knew some guys he owed.
They told us to do it out of state, so we drove him up to Hampton on a dreary day.
She threw her cross into the waves as he floated away.
But then she started having visions man, she started seeing saints.
Mary Magdalene in stitches, the future in her drink
and Katie was her sister man, Katie told her shrink.
Cass gave me a letter on the day she went away.
...
"Jesus' wife, she was a saint. Jesus Christ was just a man. He already left her once, he's not coming back again. And I've told them of my dreams, they don't help or understand. So now I'm taking matters in my own two hands."
