Afraid Of Nineveh
Jonah falls asleep inside the cabin of the boatThe ocean swells and the sailors yell it’s Jonah whose at faultWatch for sharks and whales and tread the water while you canDrown the boy and then revive the manDo do do do do do do doJonah lays awake inside the gullet of the fishHe’s got no magazines to read, he’s got no cigarettes The stomach acid turns and he’s spit up onto the sandThe bleach strips off the boy and leaves a manDo do do do do do do doWhen everything is washed away and nothings left to loseThe curses turn to dust and all the blessings turn to shoesWell tonight I lay awake inside the belly of my roomI feel the need to put behind the life that I’ve been throughBut Nineveh’s confusing so how will I understandI fall asleep a boy and wake a manDo do do do do do do do
