From Cash to LIFE!

Don’t let Cash get you down

When you feel like falling

Through that burning ring

Without a safety net in place.

Sing loud to the New Pornographers

As a mass romantic holding on

To the end of the naked truth

That will hunt you down at the end

Of the progressive Christian Century

Magazine without teeth.

But the Dawn of a new day is

Coming, coming, and coming just

As Mavis Staples wades into the water

Baptizing that seven year ache that

Cash (as in Rosanne) painfully glorifies

From the depths of her soul.

Don’t let Cash get you down

After an emotional ride through

Stars, clouds, and lightning storms.

The wages of Love is more Love

And love leads to death and death…

Well…death leads to LIFE!
