Bird in a church

i did lose my cradle to the flood
and i did lose my tneure to the rain
i have met with hard times as have you
its good to know you feel the same way too
i have walked the boards of empty halls
never having reached their open doors
i have seen more than i have cared to view
its good to know you feel the same way too.

man it aint no joke how things can get so out of whack
life has a sense of humour
its black

i have been thrown out on colder nights
i have been arressted at midday
i have had my balls rung as have you
its good to know you feel the same way too
why does bad news have to be so frank?
volcanoes!cancer!asteroids!septic tanks!

sometimes i feel like a bird in a church
i get the shakes like a ship at the sea
sometimes i feel like a motherless child
i aint got no mother thats probably why
i cant remember ever feeling worse
its good to know you feel the sme way too
