Act of the Apostle

Morning prayers took the girl unawares\nShe was late for class and she knew it The broadcaster had a voice that was soothing\nShe couldn’t tell if it was a man or woman\nA patch of sun fell onto her neck\nShe put her head on her arms on her desk\nThe lesson today was Acts of Apostles\nThe crazy hippies, they’re running scared\nShe shut her eyes and imagined the desert\nNo cars, no mobiles, just sun and bread\nWhat would she look like standing by the well?\nMore like a women and less like a girl\n?Oh, if I could make sense of it all!\nI wish that I could sing\nI’d stay in a melody\nI would float along in my everlasting song\nWhat would I do to believe?\nLater on she plays Morning Has Broken\nShe knows she’s bad\nShe is slowing everybody down\nThe choirmaster, usually a bastard, knows her mother’s sick\nHe’ll be nice to her\nShe thinks that she shouldn’t be there at all\nHer worries make everything else seem trivial\n?Oh, if I could make sense of it all!\nI wish that I could sing\nI’d stay in a melody\nI would float along in my everlasting song\nWhat would I do to believe?
