The Verve Pipe Out Like A Lamb lyrics

I'm feeling very moses like, you think that I could lead you?
Or humble more like David, would you help me 'cause I need you?
Or I'll be charismatic with the power to persuade you

Supposing I'm a savior or a drunkard or your highness
You slither in these sheets and then you ask me for forgiveness
I'll tell you parables of making love and spreading kindness

Wild flames rise like butterflies been frightened by my stompin'
I'm laughing 'cause they don't know who I am
The Philistines toss tangerines 'cause springtime is for dancing
In like a lion and out like a lamb

Goliath sits and watches, he's tired of this investigation
So children grab your M-16s and load your ammunition
And I will work all night, rewrite the book of revelations


Wild flames rise like butterflies been frightened by my stompin'
I'm laughing 'cause they don't know who I am
The Philistines toss tangerines 'cause springtime is for dancing
In like a lion and out like a lamb

Now go and tune your guitars and I'll meet you here tomorrow
Grab that case of Scotch, it's all the courage you can swallow
I'll burn for all your sins but I'm expecting you to follow

Wild flames rise like butterflies been frightened by my stompin'
I'm laughing 'cause they don't know who I am
The Philistines load magazines 'cause springtime is for dancing
In like a lion and out like a lamb
