That's what it's all about
how they don't want him around
even though I felt simple
I didn't like it, I didn't buy it
I did all I could to try to justify it
I didn't want it, I didn't need it
I had an ego and you know I had to feed it
he calls the Bible in his hand
I said, oh, no, not again
I said, go away, preacher man
Said he'd show me the light
Got so pissed off, I left,
Went back onto the street
Where we would always meet
then he held me to my feet, oh
I didn't know I couldn't try to justify it
I didn't want it, I didn't need it
I had an ego and you know
he come with a Bible in his hand
I said go away preacher man
Everybody laughed out loud,
someday you'll see the light
I didn't like it, I didn't buy it
I didn't know I couldn't try to justify it
I didn't want it, I didn't need it
I had an ego and you know
he comes with a bottle in his hand
I said, oh, no, not again
And I said, go away, creature man
