LYRICS

This is the story of three Texas boys
Busy minding their own business
When the Angel of the Lord appeared unto them saying:
"When the Winston Churchill's start firin' their Winston rifles in the sky
from the Lone Star State, drinkin' their Lone Star beer and smoking their Winston cigarettes. You know the time is drawin' nigh when the sun shall be lifted on high".

We told them that didn't sound very syndiego in meaning

"What do you expect," they said "when God calls the crippled, deaf and blind to lead the children of Israel into the promised land?"

"The children of Israel?" we asked
"Don't you boys know nothing, the USA's the center of Jerusalem?"

I hear the train a-coming.

I know not
Even with friends reaching out
My thoughts have escaped.
So try and rest
Till I trample walls over
Until land dries
Even now dark times have infiltrated so
We ask you with inhibitions to heed
Breathe Lord
On our desperate attempts now
Deliver freedom in response.
Experience a new death
Victory awaits

Prophets on risen stars
Open fierce skies
Make on lookers
Kneel

Experiencing a new death indeed

Now all you heros everywhere advance rapidly toward Texas
Here at the troop headquarters enlist
Dispatched angels remain knelt

Enduring days
You will overcome
Until land dries

Stretch out our nights been easy
Under prophet's orders
Now until the stars align lay low
Just as was told.
We are here at last
And all prophecies of old
Shall come to

Just as was told justice will unfold
Just as was told justice will unfold
Just as was told justice will unfold
Just as was told justice will unfold
Just as was told justice will unfold
Just as was told justice will unfold
Just as was told justice will unfold
Just as was told justice will unfold
Just as was told justice will unfold
The truth be told it will unfold
