“Is anything worth more than your soul?” [1]
A nite with a freak named Nicole,
A lottery win to get off the dole,
“Is anything worth more than your soul?”
“Why did you doubt?” [2]
When I’m with you day-in and day-out
Instead you stay home and pout
“Why did you doubt?”
“Why are you sleeping?” [3]
You should be in the vineyard
Sowing or reaping
“Why are you sleeping?”
"Why do you do not do what I say?” [4]
In order to understand/you have to pray
In order to love /you have to obey
"Why do you do not do what I say? “
“Won’t I leave the 99 to search for you?”[5]
Yeah, everybody else is so untrue
Especially when they get a call at quarter past two
(a.m.)
“Won’t I leave the 99 to search for you?”
“Why do you call Me good?“ [6]
You only do /When I act like you think I should
But the rest of time /My word is so misunderstood
“Why do you call Me good? “
"Do you believe what I say?” [7]
I am the Truth, the Life and the Way.
Unfortunately that fact causes so much dismay,
"Do you believe what I say?"
“How much longer must I put up with you?” [8]
How much longer before I lose My cool?
How much longer before I’ll scream “I pity the fool !”?
“How much longer must I put with you?”
