From the recording Lover In The Sky
Lyrics
Well I'm tired of being patient
Waiting for my turn
Well my clock is a tickin'
And when I leave this life you know I'm gonna burn
Hey everybody, come gather 'round
Let's listen to the same damn thing you've heard before
I'm talkin' bout change and love
Sex and drugs
Making money, cheating women, and war
I said now good God I hear her calling out your name
I rejoice in this sacred pain
Magdalene just take me away
And show me the pearly gates
Lord, if you're listening
I said don't mind me if I call
I'm just your average teenage American
I pray for mercy cause I have to
That's all
Witchy women and rock & roll
Put a curse on me and damned this soul
This ain't no true love end up in a heart shaped hole
Love me tender, till you're begging for more
(Let me hear you beg!)
I said now good God I hear her calling out your name
I rejoice in this sacred pain
Magdalene just take me away
And show me the pearly gates
Lord, if you're listening
I said don't mind me if I call
I'm just your average teenage American
I pray for mercy cause I have to
That's all
I said now good God I hear her calling out your name
I rejoice in this sacred pain
Magdalene just take me away
And show me the pearly gates
Lord, if you're listening
I said don't mind me if I call
I'm just your average teenage American
I pray for mercy cause I have to
That's all
