Make Me Pure

[Verse 1]

So I sing a song to reel 'em in

It's a song I've sung before

And a song I'm gonna sing again

I mean every word

I don't mean a single one of them

[Refrain]

Oh Lord, make me pure

But not yet

[Verse 2]

Tell a joke, tell it twice

If no one else is laughing then why am I

I split my sides both times and laugh until I cry

[Refrain]

Oh Lord, please make me pure

But not yet

[Verse 3]

I don't have to try

I just dial it in

I've never found a job that for me was worth bothering

I got a ton of selfish genes and lazy bones beneath this skin

[Refrain]

Oh Lord, make me pure

But not yet

[Verse 4]

Smoking kills, sex sells

I've got one hand in my pocket

But the other one looks cool as hell

I know I'm gonna die so my revenge is living well

[Refrain]

Oh Lord, make me pure

But not yet

[Bridge]

I stopped praying so I hope this song will do

I wrote it all for you

I'm not perfect but you don't mind that, do you?

I know you're there to pull me through, aren't you?

[Verse 5]

So I look for love

I like the search

And I'll be standing for election all across the known universe

Every president gets the country she deserves

[Refrain]

Oh Lord, make me pure

But not yet

[Verse 6]

And I've been seeing somebody's wife

She said she'd leave him for me and I said that wasn't wise

You can't lie to a liar because of all the lies

[Refrain]

Oh Lord, please make me pure

Not yet
