Blessed Evening Lyrics
As this blessed evening falls
Turn your back against the wall
And protect your hands and face
As you shield yourself from slings and arrows
Keep your eye upon the sparrow
As this blessed evening falls
Moonlight over Montreal
Don't try to resist arrest
'Cos they'll smack you down before they cuff you
Plant some drugs then try to snuff you
And the South will rise again
And we'll be in bed by ten
But just don't assume that you're my friend
And we'll shoot until there's sparks colliding
As this blessed evening falls
Don't forget the alcohol
I can smell it on your breath
With a message from your undertaker
Stuffed in a martini shaker
As this blessed evening falls
Turn your back against the wall
And protect your hands and face
As you shield yourself from slings and arrows
Keep your eye upon the sparrow
And the South will rise again
And we'll be in bed by ten
But just don't assume that you're my friend
And we'll shoot until there's sparks colliding
When this blessed evening falls
As this blessed evening falls
