lyrics

maybe i'll see my name on the news
nothing ever happens in this town, i've got nothing better to do
you win some days, but mainly i just lose
maybe one day i'll be famous and i'll give my thanks to you

and reminisce about the folks who raised me
jodie at the daycare, and old lauren with the lazy eye
sometimes the whole world says you're crazy
but my brothers of the clover always stood right at my side

and i deliver my children
save them from this rotten place we live in
and i go to sleep easy
this is god's will

close your eyes i won't hurt you, baby
gone in a flash, it's like you were never there at all
as things are, and were, and ever will be
your body is a door frame, and now i have left my mark

i sail along as i hear doors lock loudly
words of reassurance leaking out from rusty key holes
but i come in and give my sermon proudly
they fall down in reverence, begging me to save their souls

i am the beast i worship
and you'll learn to worship me, still
i'll meet you in the astral plane
i'd do it all again if i could

it's god's will, it's god's will
and god's will do what they like
it's god's will, it's god's will
and god's will do what they like
