I keep thinking that you are going to rearrange
But I’m a fool to think something so impossible
You ain’t ever gonna change
Oh no Jericho
Until I blow
I keep thinking that you are going to rise
I keep thinking that you are going to compromise
But I’m a fool to think something so improbable
You ain’t ever gonna rise
Oh no Jericho
Until I take you by surprise
Baby I know that you’re too sad to cry
But my little darling guess what? So am I
[...]
I don’t even think you hear me at all
Under your medieval ceiling behind your biblical wall
[...]
in Jericho
