Skeleton Crew - Good Lord, Hallelujah! Lyrics

GOOD LORD, HALLELUJAH

A little prayer to let you know sir
I want a little of your remedy
I'm coming down with a little something
And you're suposed to help a man in need
So put your hands up, Lay 'em on me
Let my demons know your holy ghost
I need to know, I need to understand
'Cause right now the gate is awful closed

(Wait up you're not next in line)
I kinda hoped he could make an exception
'Cause my soul is knee deep in sin
(You sure did take your sweet time)
Don't need a lecture, just give me directions
I will make the saints and angels sing

Good Lord I sing hallelujah
Shine your light on me
Cause I'm up to no good
Oh Lord what's it to ya'?
A little black wool in the herd
Might be good

Good Lord, Hallelujah
I need a shepherd
Sweet Lord Hallelujah
Just say the word

They say I'm retched, I'm no good Father
But I make it up for it with bigotry
Won't do the hard work, won't settle down
Truth be told You make no sense to me
So turn the other cheek, and look the other way
I will be busy with my earthly needs
And get along fine with my fellow man
And do to others what they do to me

(You gotta truly believe)
You can't be serious. It's so ridiculous
I'd have to be both wasted and delirious
It's like you needed applause so you created us
(Have faith and you shall receive)
Don't want a halo, just gotta stay low
Under the radar of Mr Make Believe

Good Lord I sing hallelujah
Shine your light on me
Cause I'm up to no good
Oh Lord what's it to ya'?
A little black wool in the herd
Please if you could

Good Lord, Hallelujah
I need a shepherd
Sweet Lord Hallelujah
Just say the word
