I gotta biblical baby, she born though the reeds
Finds baby Moses in a bar
I parted her sea, I swam through her hair
Let’s go to Nineveh, it isn’t that far
Nineveh
I want to hold you
Just like I told you
I’ll never walk these streets again now
Nineveh
I want to follow you
I want to swallow you whole
Never fill this hole in me now
Hieroglyph letters and Jericho jitters
‘Cause my baby went to Babylon
Sodom and Gomorrah, ah let’s leave ’em for tomorrow
‘Cause Nineveh is the only one
Nineveh
I want to hold you
Just like I told you
I’ll never walk these streets again now
Nineveh
I want to follow you
I want to swallow you whole
Never fill this hole in me now
I knew a little teeny-bopper, the mother lived in Joppa
So we’re goin’ up to Lebanon
Gonna see the sights with some friendly Hittites
And Nineveh is open all night
Nineveh
I want to hold you
Just like I told you
I’ll never walk these streets again now
Nineveh
I want to follow you
I want to swallow you whole
Never fill this hole in me now
Nineveh
I want to hold you
Just like I told you
Never walk these streets again now
Nineveh
I want to follow you
I want to swallow you whole
Never fill this hole in me now
