Have you ever wondered much at all
About your behavior?
Or worried about the role you play
Grey against the scenery?
Black cloud goes by, black cloud, blue sky
Black birds, your words, too dark to fly
Reason starts to fade and fall away
I want to take a gun to you
Rain another day while we move as angels
Gather up your blues and clear the way
I hate the games you play
While we're touched by Jesus
Gather up your blues and get out of the way
Sand invades your shoes like a desert
It's nothing to die about
And our heels are high enough
To crush the lizard take 'em off and shake it out
The sting in the tail is destined to fail
Our skin, takes in no poison
Rain another day while we move as angels
Gather up your blues and clear the way
I hate the games you play
While we're touched by Jesus
Gather up your blues and get out of the way
So the next time you're out stumbling
Across my little piece of sky
And we know we're in a state of grace
And we know we're in a state of mind
And we know we're part of the state of art
And all we really want to be is free
You gotta receive
You gotta receive what the spirit says
You gotta believe what the spirit says
And she says
"Rain another day while we move as angels
Gather up your views and clear the way
I hate the games you play
While we're touched by Jesus
Gather up your blues and get out of the way"
Rain another day while we move as angels
Gather up your blues and clear the way
I hate the games you play
While we're touched by Jesus
Gather up your blues and get out of the way
Out of the way, blues and get out of the way
