In the Left Wing - Richard Julian

Christopher and I stopped by to see Vincent today

When he opened his door we could see that he was not well

As we talked with out friend a while, you know that Chris became humble

And all that could be heard was the rumble

Of the Lord calling someone home

It was a sad and lonesome sound calling him home

Christopher is blatant with his actions

He may think he is the second coming of the Lord

For the sake of argument you know that he will take the opposite side

Like a Chinook salmon on a high tide

He moves against the wind
with the force of a cyclone into the wind
And I sang oh why do I feel this way
I've got everything in this world that a man could ask for

We stopped for a drink in a place on 8th avenue
we had just enough money to pay the bill
And when I asked him if he was the coming of the Lord
You know he threw back and he cursed
That Jesus had gotten there first and you know that
He really could have been
If it weren't for that one thing

But that's the way that life goes in the left wing
