Hello Father Sympathy I am a child blessed of thee I'm overwhelmed by you I have made a mess of things So please cure all of my disease I do my best it's true And who makes the wind rumble Inside my gut I know I'm feeling this I know I am a nut I give what little that I have And take it back So tell me what is there to lose That I don't already lack Hello Father Sympathy I thank you for the good in me I'm overwhelmed by you
I have dreams of destiny So where's my happy prophecy I need a hand or two And who turns the lights on When I am small I pray for parking spots In the shopping mall I give what little that I have And take it back So tell me what is there to fold That you haven't already packed Cause I'm going on a long long ride To God knows where Hello Father Sympathy I think the better part of me Is overwhelmed by you
