Flash And The Pan - Make Your Own Cross lyrics

She come in many colours Carbon copy girl Face of painted virtue A banner to unfurl Solid social breeding Aristocratic stock Historical orator With one eye on the clock A gardener of theory Harvester of facts A sower of religion Quick to use the axe She drown herself in questions Of static, past years Is staggered by the answers And blinded by the tears And deaf in both her ears Make your own cross Make your own cross Don't sit on someone else Make your own cross Make your own cross She told him from her cell Don't wait to be unburdened Don't wait to hear the bell Make your own cross And make it to the other side of hell She ride the social climate And charge from left to right A multitude of heroes To guide her to the light By mental acrobatics And living inside out She trailblaze to the doorway In triumph and full shout And always gets locked out Make your own cross Make your own cross Don't sit on someone else Make your own cross Make your own cross She told him from her cell Don't wait to be unburdened Don't wait to hear the bell Make your own cross And make it to the other side of hell She makes her own cross and she Hangs there for all the world to see She makes her own cross as she Locks up her mind and says I'm free She cries out from her conscience An everlasting scream The weekend revolution The winner by a dream She drive herself on edges And round the bend as well But if lunacy's a factor She'll make it to the other side of... Make your own cross Make your own cross And whistle to the wind Make your own cross Make your own cross The end where you begin Make your own cross Make your own cross She told them all to give Make your own cross Make your own cross Don't die Before You live She makes her own cross and she Hangs there for all her friends to see She makes her own cross as she Locks up her mind and says I'm free She makes her own cross and she Hangs there for all the world to see She makes her own cross as she Locks up her mind and says I'm free.
