Well, hey there, father
I don't want to bother you
But I've got a sin to confess
I'm just sixteen, if you know what I mean
Do you mind if I take off my dress?
I don't know where to start
Let me get to the good parts
You might want to cross up your legs
I've got envy, I've got greed, anything that you need
And I'm not above having to beg
There was this boy who
Tore my heart in two
I had to lay him eight feet under ground
All I need is something to save me
'Cause God, I'm goin' down
What I need is something to save me
'Cause God, I'm goin' down
All the way down
Hey there, father
There is just one other thing
I have a simple request
I hear you know God, could you give him a nod in my direction?
I would be in your debt
Perhaps there is something that we could work out
I noticed your breathing has started to change
We could go in the back
Behind all these stacks of bibles
And get out of this cage
There was this boy who
(Tore my heart in two)
(I had to lay him) Eight feet under ground
And all I need is something to save me
'Cause God, I'm goin' down
What I need is something to save me
'Cause God, I'm goin' down
All the way down
I didn't wanna do it, father
But I caught him with another
Woman in the bed I made
And so I put him in the grave
And now there's no one left around
To get me off when I want - it's a drag (what a drag)
The next day on the television
They identified him by the circumcision that I made
And now I'm on the run but wait
Why did I have to go and kill him
When he was the best I ever had?
What I need is something to save me
'Cause God, I'm goin' down
What I need is something to save me
'Cause God, I'm goin' down
All the way down
All the way down
All the way down
All the way down
