Get Down Moses

Once I got to the mountaintop, tell you what I could see
Prairie full of lost souls running from the priests of iniquity
Where the hell was Elijah?
What do you do when the prophecy game was through?

We gotta take the walls of Jericho
Put your lips together and blow
To the very top
Say the truth crystallizes like jewels in the rock, in the rock

Get down, Moses, part another sea
Carve another tablet out of LSD
Get down, Moses, out in Tennessee
Get down, Moses, down in the street
The blood is washing down all the gravel to our feet
Get down, Moses, down in the pit

Lying in a dream, cross a battlefield
Crashing on a downtown strip
Looking in the eyes of the diamonds and the spies and the hip
Who's sponsoring the crack ghetto?
Who's lecturing? Who's in the know and in the don't-know?

You better take the walls of Jericho
Put your lips together and blow
Goin' to the very top
Where the truth crystallizes like jewels in the rock, in the rock

Get down, Moses, from the eagle aerie
You gotta make new friends out of old enemies
Get down, Moses, back in Tennessee
Get down, Moses, down with the dreads
They got a lotta reasoning in a dreadhead
Get down, Moses, down in the street

Get down, Moses, part another sea
Carve another tablet out of LSD
Get down, Moses, out in Tennessee
Get down, Moses, down in the street
The blood washing down all the gravel to our feet
Get down, Moses, down in the pit

Get down, Moses
Get down, Moses
Get down, Moses
We need to eat
We gotta chew it over with our wisdom teeth
Get down, Moses
