lyrics
Since I was a hebejebe,
I seen signs on the TV,
Reach for that American star.
'Cause I might last longer,
If my aftershave were stronger,
And I drove an even faster car.
But my folks get older,
And I feel a little colder,
When I'm chanting for the US of A.
Got me standing all alone,
Hundred numbers in my phone,
Something's gotta get me through today.
CHORUS:
Well you looked so fine
Turning water into wine,
But all it ever got us was drunk.
Now I'm looking for a daughter,
To turn wine into water again.
Wine into water again.
When I last got saved,
Pulled myself out of my grave,
To the land of empty bottles and change.
With my last check gone,
In the painful light of dawn,
Nothing left to me but more of the same.
Thought a man full grown,
Had to make it on his own,
Drown his troubles with whatever's at hand.
Till the last cup falls,
And my lovin' angel calls,
Cause together we can make that stand!
FEMALE VOICES: Well you looked so fine turning water into wine.
Oh, cool water flows.
Wine into water again.
