Great Hosannas Lyrics - Windfall - Joe Pug

Aspirations, flat refusals 

Childhood bedrooms, disapproval 

Would be authors, erstwhile singers 

Costume jewelry, ballpark figures 

Naked power, basic sidekick 

True love's call gone unrequited 

Great hosannas, Sunday Christians 

Broken Spanish, postcard missions 

Payed compassion, sponsored mercy 

Remunerated soul searching 

Wishful thinking, best intentions 

Friendships based on chain-link fences 

Silent partners, business ventures 

Closet smokers, payday lenders 

Rolex watches, walk-in closets 

Floodlights drained on open faucets 

Great hosannahs, grinning Barrick 

What ruthless men stand to inherit
