I was in a really dark place. I even thought of packing it in, but I just could not bring myself to do it. I met an Holly Squirrel that I had a real connection with And he saw my despair He asked me if I’d like to play with him And as we played I felt, slowly but surely, rock ‘n roll grabbed me by the neck, and I, well... You are a man of impeccable taste And you know when the Jihad marks the spot We all need a map for the trail of your thought Where to go, well, the Jihad marks the spot You seem to have a misgiving Hell yeah, you make a living Dont add bricks to what were heaving We would so much Rather enjoy the beach, beer and a fire You think something somewhere Has a copyright for the world And youve signed where the Jihad marks the spot You join a cult, fill the void that youve got Deep within where the Jihad marks the spot There you stand and talk and holler How dark are all your colors When you paint another sunrise You leave out the sun Birds like you fly straight to heaven, heaven Or they slowly float away How well do you know those youre calling your own? I mean... come on dude! Jihad marks the spot Your starving soul in your house of skin and bone Youre an island, the Jihad marks the spot Testify squirrels, testify. There you stand and talk and holler... How dark are all your colors When you paint another sunrise You leave out the sun Oh allah protect me from evils and that And there was a period of time when I hadn’t exactly lost my soul I just didn’t know where I’d put it And I ended up in some very dark places and some dire circumstances Now let me tell you, children, I was trying to fill a void in my heart To fill that void I got what I always wanted: Success, prosperity, the admiration I wanted as a player I got a place in big shows and travelled the world from end to end And the next of it all, I had this yearning in my heart Yearning in my heart for rock’n’roll.
