Lyrics

Magdalene is trembling Like a washing on a line Trembling and gleaming Never before was a man so kind Never so redeeming Enter the multitudes In Exxon blue In radiation rose Ecstasy, now you tell me Who you gonna get to do the dirty work When all the slaves are free? (Who're you gonna get?) I am up a sycamore Looking through the leaves A sinner of some position Who in the world can this heart healer be? This magical physician Enter the multitudes In Exxon blue In radiation rose Misery, you tell me Who you gonna get to do the dirty work When all the slaves are free? (Who're you gonna get?) Enter the multitudes The walking wounded They come to this diver of the heart Of the multitudes Thy kingdom come Thy will be done "Oh, climb down, climb down", he says to me From the middle of unrest They think is light is Squandered But he sees a stray in the wilderness And I see how far I've wandered Enter the multitudes In Exxon blue In radiation rose Apathy, you tell me Who you gonna get to do the dirty work When all the slaves are free? (Who're you gonna get?) Enter the multitudes The walking wounded They come to this diver of the heart Of the multitudes Thy kingdom come Thy will be done Oh, all around the Marketplace The buzzing of the flies The buzzing and the stinging Divinely barren And wickedly wise The killer nails are ringing Enter the multitudes In Exxon blue In radiation rose Tragedy Now you tell me Who you gonna get to do the dirty work When all the slaves are free? (Who're you gonna get?) (Who're you gonna get?) (Who're you gonna get?) (Who're you gonna get?) (Who're you gonna get?) (Who're you gonna get?) (Who're you gonna get?)
