What can break the heart of a fairground boy
What can break the heart of a fairground boy
Make his thoughts as pure as money
Write a name across his skin
Holy water
Let it all come down
Holy water
Let it all come down
What can touch the soul of doctors priests and thieves
What can touch the soul of doctors priests and thieves
Holy water
Let it all come down
Holy water
Let it all come down
Beauty queens and presidents turn away in shame
As strange as winter
As cruel as a train
As cruel as a train
Oh
What can put acid and gold into your dreams
What can put acid and gold into your dreams
Burn a hole through heaven
Bring it all down here
Holy water
Let it all come down
Holy water
Let it all come down
Holy water
Let it all come down
Holy water
Let it all come down
