assemblage 23 – mary behind the counter (1994) lyrics
mary behind the counter
looking sad, looking solemn
serious, soft-spoken
has friends but never calls them
mary behind the counter
says the end is coming soon now
there’s no room for the sinners
that i should understand now
i need to be a better man
don’t change slowly, don’t change slowly
she said the good lord’s ways
are wonderful and strange
can i have a moment of your time?
i promise you it’ll change your life
i said don’t you try to tell me dear
that god is something i should fear
i didn’t come to hear your religious views
now that’s enough, begone with you
mary behind the counter
apprehends me as i’m leaving
crying on my shoulder
telling me she isn’t teasing
i just frown and walk out the door
across the dusty, wooden floor
making a mental note
not to come here anymore
so don’t you try to tell me dear
that god is something i should fear
i didn’t come to hear your religious views
now that’s enough, begone with you
