In the city of Desire
Where they built the funeral pyre
There's a neon sign saying, 'Open Seven Days'
And a man who's taking names
Is getting drunk with Jesse James
And telling him he'll have to change his ways

While beneath the pale blue moon
Death can't come too soon
To the organ grinder player there in the rain
And he's only got one fear
He'll tell you if you want to hear
It's the nagging doubt he might be born again

Born again, born again
To go through all the pain
Of life and love and luxury again
Born again, born again
To cry here in the rain
There's a nagging doubt he might be born again

In the old slave market square
There's a place barren and bare
Where the Vestal Virgins sell themselves each night
And there's plenty who will pay
For having their own way
Of killing a few minutes with delight

On the other side of town
Down is up and up is down
And instead of Lover's there's a Hater's Lane
That's where the rich folks go
But it's a hard hard road to hoe
When your money can't make you be born again

Born again, born again
Every John and Jane
Is begging to erase the Mark of Cain
Born again, born again
The mad, the sad, the vain
Their hands are clasped praying to be born again

In a sacrament of souls
No one wins, no bell tolls
It's the wrong end of the spyglass you attain
But we'll find out what it means
In kaleidoscopic dreams
When we know for sure we'll all be born again

Born again, born again
To lose, to tie, to gain
Someone's rock, someone else's bane
Born again, born again
The reason why is plain
For to make amends we must be born again
Yeah to make amend we must be born again
We're all at the station waiting for a train
