Tom Flannery God's Other Side Lyrics

I met an alcoholic wife beater todaywho was praying on
the steps of the courthouse
saying the judges needed wisdom from on high
and to this cause he did espouse
said he was worried about the gays
and what they did to each other
was worried about morality
he was worried about his mother
he carried an automatic pistol hooked inside his belt
said it was a great peacemaker
made his own wine and drank it in church
said he could pray just like a quaker
worked in stocks and laughed about
all the ladies he had screwed
but he could bless himself like a son of a bitch
hated TV that was lewd chorus:
said he's on God's other side
it's like sitting behind the moon
only those who give until it hurts
are let inside the room
Said that camel through the eye of a needle thing
well that needed to distill
the one who owned the most camels
could resize that eye at will
told me he bought the front row pew
had his name engraved in gold
winked at the preacher when he caught his eye
and was never growing old
chorus:
said he's on God's other side
it's like sitting behind the moon
only those who give until it hurts
are let inside the room
