Liner Notes: The worst bit of lyric writing of my career appeared in this song in the middle eight, but it was left over from an old school song I had, so I'll excuse myself. I would like to add I've never used any lyrics about flying through the sky since! We had a big choral ensemble of Liverpool's finest rogues to sing the ending of the album, and we all gathered at Parr Street Studios to perform the outro of this one together. Probably one of the best days in the studio we ever had! There is a subliminal message towards the very end of the singing with a chant about Duncan Ferguson. Listen! Paul Draper, Attack of the Grey Lantern 3CD Collectors Edition

Lyrics Wait around I'll be walking quite a while Don't be late, hard to take Vicar twists and gets away

His lipstick's running His dress is stunning He's got high heels on And his flock don't care now Mavis, what he will wear?

In the path of righteous man There is rubble where I stand I'll be the one You can kiss his vase Until the end of the month

Vicar stay, 'cause your lipstick Smeared away from your face Vicar twist Gray pajamas in your case

His tights are nylon His nails by Revlon He's got high heels on And his flock don't care now Mavis, what he will wear?

In the path of righteous man There is rubble where I stand I'll be the one You can kiss his vase Until the end of the month

And if you should see me passing by Do not disturb me as I fly Though I am walking here This is where I'll be

In the path of righteous man There is rubble where I stand I'll be the one You can kiss his vase Until the end of the month

In the path of righteous man There is rubble where I stand I'll be the one You can kiss his vase Until the end of the month

Until the end of the month Until the end of the month Oh yeah, yeah

Ooh ooh, oh yeah Ooh ooh, oh yeah Ooh ooh, oh yeah

Na na na na na na na, oh
