THANK GOD GOD DAMN IT part one, song lyrics
by Joel Sattler
based on a poem by satnrose
summer it left me with unopened mail
so I can't forget all those nights in the jail
the glazier did up all the town in ice
somebody was dusted and that wasn't nice
and here I am still not ready to go
out my house and here on the road
damn this is hard and I wander to walk
unfrozen out of all of what I had brought
this is where storms of the past pass
living for nothing but it can not last
shall I ignore the what or the if
where I can not be sure of a kiss
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
might as well thank Him and then carry on
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
you better thank God before it's all gone
but that was back when the track burst into a cloud
foolish for you but the sky was so loud
the world leaves a fix crowing just like a cock
here comes the band and they're ready to rock
where was the pixie who fled in your sleep
who knows how buried who knows how deep
when I had trust I didn't have fear
so now I am barefoot and see it so clear
I find that I travel the ocean alone
the traces of cities want to sink like a stone
and where I was counted I shut out the near
and ask for tonight just why are we here
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
might as well thank Him and then carry on
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
you better thank God before it's all gone
what I knew I did not know
where I went I did not go
what I believed just wasn't so
all of my yes turned into a no
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
might as well thank Him and then carry on
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
thank God God damn it
you better thank God before it's all gone
