Lyrics Robyn Hitchcock

Robyn Hitchcock

Mexican God

Oooh, wap shoo wadda dap

Oooh, wap shoo wadda dap

Chip-chip-chipper up in the crow's nest

Upside down face but it still saw a lot

Flaking off, breaking off, crumbled and cracking

Time will destroy you like a Mexican god

Dreaming your eyes away, closed to the future

Pray for amnesia to finish you off

This is the evil I wished on so many

Time will destroy you like a Mexican god

Moon in a cup, crushed garlic and babies

Sailors all stagnant and bloating and rough

The horror of you floats so close by my window

At least when I die, your memory will too

Oooh, wap shoo wadda dap

Oooh, wap shoo wadda dap

Cruel, magnificent, roasting your people

I am secure at the end of your rod

Cut out my heart and it flies to the ceiling

Time will destroy you like a Mexican god

Time will destroy you like a Mexican god

Time will destroy you

Oooh, wap shoo wadda dap

Oooh, wap shoo wadda dap

Oooh, wap shoo wadda dap

Oooh, wap shoo wadda dap

Oooh
