Passion Play (When All The Slaves Are Free) - Joni Mitchell

Magdalene is trembling

Like a washing on a line

Trembling and gleaming

Never before was a man so kind

Never so redeeming

Enter the multitudes

In exxon blue

In radiation rose

Ecstasy

Now you tell me Who you gonna get to do the dirty work

When all the slaves are free?

(who're you gonna get)

I am up a sycamore

Looking through the leaves

A sinner of some position

Who in the world can this heart healer be This magical physician

Enter the multitudes

In exxon blue

In radiation rose

Misery

Now you tell me Who you gonna get to do the dirty work

When all the slaves are free?

(who're you gonna get)

Enter the multitudes

The walking wounded

They come to this diver of the heart

Of the multitudes

Thy kingdom come

Thy will be done

Oh, climb down, climb down he says to me From the middle of unrest

They think is light is squandered

But he sees a stray in the wilderness

And i see how far i’ve wandered

Enter the multitudes

In exxon blue

In radiation rose

Apathy

Now you tell me Who you gonna get to do the dirty work

When all the slaves are free?

(who're you gonna get)

Enter the multitudes

The walking wounded

They come to this diver of the heart

Of the multitudes

Thy kingdom come

Thy will be done

Oh, all around the marketplace

The buzzing of the flies

The buzzing and the stinging

Divinely barren

And wickedly wise

The killer nails are ringing

Enter the multitudes

In exxon blue

In radiation rose

Tragedy

Now you tell me Who you gonna get to do the dirty work

When all the slaves are free?

(who're you gonna get)
