Patience, give me some of that sweet patience, Lord,

I will keep my eye on my goal

I take a few shlugs on the kisser

I'm comin back at ya, ya know I'm gonna catch ya

Cos you know I got no brakes

It doesn't matter how long that it takes

My luck I'm gonna make

I take a few shlugs on the kisser

I'm comin back wailin, big right sailin

Cos ya know I got no brakes

It doesn't matter how long that it takes

My luck I'm gonna make

Patience, give me some of that patience, Lord,

I will keep my eye on my goal

Patience, give me some of that sweet patience, Lord,

I will keep my eye on the ball

Well I've exchanged the spear and the sword

For words and melody

Oh what a felony

How the record company pushes this McDonalds music

An aural lobotomy

For those who choose it

Corporations pumpin all this money into pop

To keep the real singers far away from the top

So folks are never told what these corporations do

Fuckin up the planet, exploiting me and you

Well I take a few shlugs on the kisser

I'm comin back at ya, ya know I'm gonna catch ya

Cos you know I got no brakes

It doesn't matter how long that it takes

My luck I'm gonna make

I take a few shlugs on the kisser

I'm comin back wailin, big right sailin

Cos ya know I got no brakes

It doesn't matter how long that it takes

My luck I'm gonna make

Patience, give me some of that patience, Lord,

I will keep my eye on my goal

Patience, give me some of that sweet patience, Lord,

I will keep my eye on the ball

From my room in Donaghmede

I'm 'bout to kick all your asses

Stick your pink champagne and fuck your backstage passes

A warrior comin down the mountain at ya

A woodkern springin from the trees to catch ya,

I'm lickin my wounds in the wilderness

Prayin for the warmth of the sun's kiss

My time will come

Your race is run

The throne's rightly mine

You greedy swine.

Well I take a few shlugs on the kisser

I'm comin back at ya, ya know I'm gonna catch ya

Cos you know I got no brakes

It doesn't matter how long that it takes

My luck I'm gonna make

I take a few shlugs on the kisser

I'm comin back wailin, big right sailin

Cos ya know I got no brakes

It doesn't matter how long that it takes

My luck I'm gonna make.

Patience, give me some of that patience, Lord,

I will keep my eye on my goal

Patience, give me some of that sweet patience, Lord,

I will keep my eye on the ball

Patience, give me some of that sweet patience, Lord,

I will keep my eye on my goal , yeah

Patience, give me some of that sweet patience, Lord,

I will keep my eye on the ball.
