Girl for Samson - Peteena Says

about

Woke up in the middle of the the road to Damascus on 11/17/00
and scribbled down the words for Peteena.  I came up with the 
verse music on a piano.  We ended up using some great 3/4 parts 
of Bone's that we had been playing for the last few months for 
a chorus.  Steven added a very nice XTC sounding bridge.

words

peteena says your body's made of water
and the water in your body is your soul
the sun demands your body back in heaven
and some day back to heaven you will go

hey! she brays
i am the life and the truth and the way
and in the end
when you come back again
peeteena will know but peetena won't say

peteena says that rain is reincarnation 
like buddha bobbing in your neighbor's pond 
you drink the blood of christ in coca-cola 
and leak the tears of gahndi on the ground
