lyrics

Preacher says I'll never see the castle in the sky
I've got news for father dear I've been there when I was very high
He thinks he'll go to heaven sound
I know he'll be rotting in the ground
What kind of life's worth living
If it's not spent sinning

So Jesus Christ my home dog Holy Lord
I don't go to church because I would just get bored

What would Jesus do given a copious amount of dope
I like to think he'd sneak out back and have himself a smoke
Wake up in a pile of whores
Virgin Mary's no virgin no more
I find nothing wrong
If Jesus is laying down his mom

So Jesus Christ my home dog Holy Lord
I don't go to church because I would just get bored
I just might live and grow old
But I'll never ask for him to save my soul

When I find myself at the Pearly Gates
I need no mirror to know my eyes they dilate
Oh everything's as white as snow
When your nose is filled with blow
The preacher and I both know
It's a divine state

Listen to Iller by the Second- it will unleash the Bear In You. ... more
