Timbuk 3 - Prey lyrics

You never pray for peace You pray for victory You never pray for love You pray for abstinence Your mind's stuck in reverse And life keeps getting worse You say you pray for blessings But it works just like a curse You pray for the godless ones The ones who will not pray You pray for a savior Who will blow them all away You pray on your Bible You pray on bended knee And every time you say a prayer You prey on me, you prey on me You pray to God each day That your son won't turn out gay And your daughter won't bring home Someone like me You pray with every breath You love the Lord to d**h You're k**ing him with your kindness Don't you see? You pray He'll crush the enemies Of your s**ual oppression You pray He'll send a virus That will teach us all a lesson And for all the unwed mothers In this whole knocked-up city And all the unborn children Who will never feel your pity You pray on your Bible You pray on bended knee And every time you move your mouth You prey on me, you prey on me
