 When we don't  get what we deserve
 That's a real good thing,  a real good thing
 When we get  what we don't deserve
 That's a real good thing,  a real good thing

Born  to sin and then  get caught
All  our good deeds don't  mean squat
Sell  the Volvo, shred the Visa
Send  the cash to Ma Teresa
Great  idea, the only catch is
 You don't  get saved on merit badges
 Doctor's coming, looking grim
 'Do you have a favorite hymn?'
 Check your balance through the years
 All accounts are in arrears
 Guilt is bitter, grace is sweet
 Park it here on the mercy seat
Distorted electric guitar (keyboard plays Gm)
