[verse 1]
saint paul said to saint steven:
“well i guess that makes us even”
as steven wiped the rubble off his brow
and steven said to paul:
“you’ve seen one you’ve seen ’em all
i hope that we can laugh about it now”

and henry said to becket:
“i don’t know what you expected
even god said render caeser what is his”
said becket to the king:
“that won’t amount to anything
if you can’t recognize just what it is”
[chorus]
you don’t know how it will break from where it bends
just don’t mistake the middlе for the end

[verse 2]
and flannery o’connor
couldn’t summon up thе honor
to sit and face james baldwin in the south
she knew the truth was something more
than what she had a stomach for
or a misfit’s kind of grace to sort it out

a calm came over sister
saint theresa benedicta
prayin’ in a train car headin’ east
for love’s lasting mediation
in our reconciliation
that could swallow all creation in its breach

[chorus]
you don’t know how it will break from where it bends
just don’t mistake the middle for the end

[outro]
what you give and what you take, it all depends
but just don’t mistake the middle for the end
don’t mistake the middle for the end
