The Church Of Logic, Sin, And Love

They weren't surprised by the wind and rain.
They took off east, I think that's what they did...
They were just two of the wildest, bored creatures on earth,
Fed up with work, strip bars and loneliness galore.
In an old oldsmobile that one of them bought off their father,
They ate up so much road they was grinnin', ha ha...
Then they came upon the thing...

This is real, this is now,
This is a freak show baby, anyhow.
Oh, the church of logic, sin, and love,
Heals the curious magic soul.
Big top drama from head to toe:
Cactus, venom, rodeo...
Oh, the church of logic, sin, and love..

Two hours later they decided to stop at a diner,
'Cause they just loved the smell of eggs and coffee.
I just had to smoke a cigarette and wear a hat...
By the time that they set off again,
The sun was starting to set, it made the sky look red like a nuclear way...
One of them said "what do you want more than anything in this whole wide world?
Do you want money, do you want sex, or do you want all that success?"
I thought about that myself...
Then they came upon the thing...

This is real, this is now,
This is a freak show baby, anyhow.
Oh, the church of logic, sin, and love,
Heals the curious magic soul.
Big top drama from head to toe:
Cactus, venom, rodeo...
Oh, the church of logic, sin, and love...
Hey, yeah!

(ubiquitous guitar solo)

The thing ahead sixty miles, do not miss.
Not for the squeamish or depressed,
Not for the unbelievers truly obsessed,
Something you just don't wanna miss.
It's the kind of place where space explorers could have landed around 1963;
When Kennedy was in Life Magazine,
And everything was aquamarine...
Aquamarine...

(guitar solo part 2)

This is real, this is now,
This is a freak show baby, anyhow.
Oh, the church of logic, sin, and love,
Heals the curious magic soul.
Big top drama from head to toe:
Cactus, venom, rodeo...
Oh, the church of logic, sin, and love...
Oh, the church of logic, sin, and love...
