John the Baptist

I'm John the baptist and this is my friend Salome

And you can bet it's my head she wants

And not my heart only

If you see my smiling and you wonder why

You can bet it's a private joke

Between her and I

And it's all alright

(Everything's alright)

All-alright

(Everything's alright)

She dances for me in the midnight moon

(Everything's alright)

And when I play for her, she never sings too soon

(Everything's alright)

When my head's cut off and I'm lying on the plate

(Everything's alright)

I'm going to grin and tell myself, it's a been a lovely wait

And it's all alright

(Everything's alright)

All-alright

(Everything's alright)

With the revelations granted

(Everything's alright)

And my face just lightly haunted

See myself on the nursery wall

(Everything's alright)

On a poster reading "Wanted"

And there's a big reward for bringing me in

And I know in my very heart, I committed no sin

And it's all alright

(Everything's alright)

All-alright

(Everything's alright)

I'm John the baptist and this is my friend Salome

And you can bet it's my head she wants

And not my heart only

If you see my smiling and you wonder why

You can bet it's a private joke

Between her and I

And it's all alright

(Everything's alright)

All-alright

(Everything's alright)

Everything's alright

Everything's alright

Everything's alright

Everything's alright

Everything's alright

Everything's alright
