  • Dropped off the edge again down in Juarez
    "Don't even bat an eye
    If the eagle cries" the rasta man says
    Just cause the desert likes
    Young girls flesh and

    No angel came
    No angel came

    I don't think you even know
    What you think you just said
    So go on and spill your seed,
    Shake your gun to the Rastaman's head
    'Cause the desert, she must be blessed and

    No angel came
    No angel came (listen, darling)
    No angel came

    There's a time to keep it up, a time to keep it in

    (Listen, darling)

    No angel came
    No angel came
    No angel came (listen, darling)
    No angel came
    No angel came
    No angel came
    No angel came Writer/s: Tori Ellen Amos
