 Melody 1 (2x)
 Now the party's  over and the money's all  gone
 You remember  feeling like Jesus'  son
Now  your girl has left your  side
 And now  you're gonna get crucified
 They're gonna crucify  you
Crucify  you
Crucify  you
Crucify  you
 In those old cotton  fields back home
 Back Home
 Too late  to joke or crack a smile
 You gotta carry  that shit up that drunken mile
 When they put  the electrodes in your  brain
 And even  your Mother won't know you're  sane
First  Lord Nelson's sunken  ships
Now  Steve Lillywhite's drunken  mix
 They're gonna crucify  you
Crucify  you
Crucify  you
Crucify  you
 In those old cotton  fields back home
 Back Home
 Back Home
 Back Home
 Back Home
 Melody 1 (3x) alone
