Verse: Play with Rhy. Fig. 1
1:26- 1:58
/ /
the Jesuits rolled in their tanks to my front door
/ /
while the Capuchins held a love-in on my front porch
/ /
the Augustinians kept to themselves, stuck their tongues out in a row
/ /
they said, "devil boy, it's off to Hell you go!"

Verse: Play with Rhy. Fig. 1
2:42- 3:15
/ /
and so I'll sit and pray for her to call me there
/ /
and I'll burn that bridge a 1000 times, on the cross I bear
/ /
just to wonder if you're listening from a soap box in the sky
/ /
to finally realize my price, was it you or I?

Chorus: 3:32- end
/
for heaven's sake
/
it's only been 2000 years
/
and I can't wait any
/
longer for you
/
for heaven's sake
/
I'd give away eternity
/
If you would come back to me
/
If you would come back to me
/
If you would come back to me
/
If you would come back to me
