Would someone be able to send me the offical lyrics to "Holy Joe" please!
I've been listening to this song on and off ever since it was released with
the Discotheque single last year...it is a really cool song I think.
Anyway, because of the FX on Bono's vocals I am finding it hard to
distinguish what he is singing in some parts and it makes it difficult to
actually understand what the whole song is about. I know that he is
supposedly making fun of his old 'holier than thou' image, but I think
there's a bit more to it than this.
In one part (the pre-chorus), it's kind of rap like...too many words to fit
the music anyway....it sounds like Bono sings "it's O.K everythings
alright, I'm posing as the devil with everbody's wife...yeah!"
This would obviously be a reference to MacPhisto on the Zooropa tour if this
is what he actually sings.
Please get back to me someone :)
I am a humble guy...no, really I try...but you know it's hard sometimes,
John Wilson ;)
