Here's the story of that tune: I wrote it during the siege on the Davidian compound. The night that I debuted it at The Balcony Club in Dallas was the same day that they torched the place. I had watched it happen live on TV that afternoon. I felt slightly strange about performing the tune, but by that time patrons of the club were already making jokes like, "How many Branch Davidians can you fit in a Volkswagen? It depends on how big the ashtray is." So I went ahead and did it.

lyrics:

WACO (We Ain't Comin' Out)

dedicated to David Koresh



Whacko Waco
We ain't comin' out
Not until we hear the angels shout
The Book of Revelation
Will tell you what it's all about
The end is near
and we're in here and
We Ain't Comin' Out.

ii

I go seven seals
I got seven guns
I got seven wives
And they've got seven sons
I'm an angel with an Uzi
Savior of the World
Gonna sit in my Jacuzzi
Mess around with little girls

iii

Little girl
now don't you be afraid
Gonna show you how a martyr's made
Got an Abrams on my doorstep
But you know that ain't no clout
Gonna sit right here on my god rocket
We Ain't Comin' Out

iv

A voice from heaven
Via microwave
TV cameras
And a soul to save
Ya gotta hand full of gimmie
And a mouth full of much oblige
If you're not gettin' any
Are you tellin' lies?

v

All is Pride
All is Vanity
Sweet thirteen
You're gonna marry me
And the ATF and the FBI
Don't know what it's all about
Your sweet lips
And the Apocalypse
We Ain't Comin' Out

We ain't comin' out
Our death is near
Though many of us
Are filled with fear
Our savior says

Hold out

Oh God

There is a lesson here

Hold out
I used to walk with my head in the clouds but I kept getting struck by lightning!
Now my head twitches and I drool alot. Anonymouse

David Koresh talked with heaven
held the minds of men and women
told them god was on the run
filled his Waco camp with guns
Federal agents came to get him
He used children to protect him
agents grew tired of waiting at last
killed them all in a firey blast

No you can't tell by the way he walks
You can't tell by the way he talks
You can't tell by the way he washes his hands
What is in the secret heart of a man

Met Koresh in Addison Guitar Center one day
I thought I recognized him
I had a friend who looked just like him
I went over to see if it was my friend
we chatted about the statocasters for a few minutes
seemed like a nice enough guy
