lyrics

Someone told me when I was sixteen that I would not amount to anything
Well, I rightfully took offense, took up a job
I went out on my own
I made a Pretty Penny took her out and now she's on her own
Out of my pocket getting spent on God only knows
Well, I tucked my tail, turned back my trail and found myself at home
When I looked for my reflection I found a Holy Invisible Ghost
He was looking up jobs in the classifieds when appears an ad in front of my eyes
He says, "Why don't you get a job as a space cadet?"
Don't involve spaceships just a lot of drugs in a basement
Well, I went down so I could get high but the higher, higher I didn't realize
Nobody taught me how to land and so I just took a dive
But when it came time for me to die...

Jesus Christ, he done saved my soul, but he left me out here on my own
To dig in dirt and lay down some pavement
So I could find my head in a bed, in a home, and pay rent
No, to me this still don't make much sense
Jesus Christ, he done saved my soul, but he left me out here on my own
To dig in dirt and try to find my soul

So there ain't no sense in worrying about death, cause he's already on his way
But he ain't gonna make me leave and I ain't gonna stay
I'll just shake his hand when I meet him at my grave
I'll just shake his hand when I meet him at my grave
