lyrics

Lord, won't you buy me
A Mercedes-Benz 'cause all the gents here
Are so goddamn broke they ain't even got hope
Of treating me good

They try to get by
And love me on the side
But in the end it's clear that their fear
Of seeing me go, go, go
Will kill their kicks and spend their chips
And take down what's left of their fix
Of loving and holding me for a little while,
A while at a time

So lord, won't you show me
Someone who would take my heart instead of me
Who would make me stay for longer than just play
And a change of mind

They believe in angels
They think they've thought it through, well
I'm an angel of sin, boy
And I'm gonna condemn you

No prayer will do
I never will be true
As many times as I come on by
I will go, go, go
Well there's two barrels on my gun
The other's cruel and the other's fun
You call me if you wanna see where I will aim
To make you tame

So lord, won't you buy me
A Mercedes-Benz 'cause all the gents here
Seem to be in the mood
And I gotta do some driving around

Result: pure awesomeness! ... more
