Cut up High and Dry

Please god, let me be wrong this time Is a better home a-waiting lord in the sky? I wait for a sign and I pray for the stars to align But I'll never know nothing 'til it's cut and dry Please, don't make me take an eye for an eye I don't see how I could ever see why Wait 'til the rain comes down and when the waters on the rise Nothing's any better when we're left up high and dry Love thy neighbour and your family and friends The power and the glory forever and ever, amen Wait 'til the world's caught fire, then try to pretend All our sins are forgiven in the end It might take five, we could even make ten By and by, it'll all be cut and dry again
