My Big Day (three Versions) Lyrics - Guided By Voices

I stole the fleece from the grasp of the beast 

Now I will rest in peace, yeah I will rest in peace 

And it's my big day 

It's my big day 

I peeled the skin from the fruit of good men 

Waging war over sin, yeah I'd do it all again 

On my big day 

On my big day 

*Written in Blood passed down through ages 

*A song for any fool to play 

*On his big day 

*Boys will be boys making all kinds of noise 

*With the dangerous toys 

*I keep my poise 

*''cause it's my big day 

*Oh it's my big day 

*Kings versus kings but it don't mean a thing 

*It's a serious thing(?) 

*When a straight pack ??? 

*On my big day 

* Oh it's my big day 

It's my day 

It's my day 

It's my day 

It's my day 

Don't you try to spoil it 

I'm a firebreathing dragon 

Don't you try to stop me 

I'm a hi-tech paddy wagon 

(*watch me off the ground with nothing draggin') 

And here I go 

Smooth sailing 

From here on out 

(*lyrics for version three)
