Lyrics

Catholic Priest (Live)

Used to believe
I wanted to be a catholic priest
I would never have to worry
'Bout the girls tryin' to break my heart

All expenses paid
Yeah, I'd have it made
The house would come furnished
Yeah, I'd have it made

Been living like
Every time I black out night
It's like a soccer timeout
Lost minutes added to the end of my life

I wish I remembered
What I said
I woke up embarrassed
With a pain in my head

I wish I remembered
Hurting your feelings
I woke up embarrassed
Took out the trash
I woke up embarrassed
And I tried to make you laugh, laugh
