r. o. shapiro - st. joan lyrics

Loading...

had no plan of attack
just the wind at my back and a heart full of strings
there she stood in the aisle
pretty girl, pretty smile
what a dangerous thing

saint joan of the seatbelt, saint joan of the sky
palming plasticine peanuts, pouring pepsi and wine
she points toward the exits like some prayer from on high
and from her mouth god came tumblin

and she sang a song of peace and rejoicing
she sang and my heart couldn’t help let her voice in

we touched down in la
that’s the place where i stay
where i keep all my clothes

and in a cab on the ten
i was thinking bout when
i should quit i suppose

then my driver mohammed asked, “what do you do?”
our eyes met in the mirror as o searched for the truth
i said i’m a singer he said i got news for you
i am too
i am too

and he sang a song of peace and rejoicing
he sang and my heart couldn’t help let his voice in

oh, oh

that night on the stage
thinking i’d turn the page, i could not find my light
felt some heat on my face
but it came from a place filled with anger and fright
then my heart heard a murmur that turned to a roar
as the crowd started pounding their feet on the floor
i remembered at last what i’m doing this for
it’s not for me, not just for me

and i sang my song of peace and rejoicing
i sang and their hearts couldn’t help let my voice in
my voice in
my voice in

oh, oh, oh

peace and rejoicing
peace and rejoicing
oh, ooh
