Lyrics

Bus Stop

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There's a cry that is heard in the city

From Vivian at Pentecost Lane

A shriekin' and dancing till 4 a.m.

Another night of muscles and pain

I love you despite your convictions

That God never laughs at my jokes

I'm a young man at odds with the Bible

But I don't pretend faith never works

When we're down on our knees

Prayin' at the bus stop

Now Jesus he came in a vision

And offered you redemption from sin

I'm not sayin' that I don't believe you

But are you sure that it really was him

I've been told that it couldn've been blue cheese

Or the meal that we ate down the road

I'm a young man at odds with the Bible

But I don't pretend faith never works

When we're down on our knees

Prayin' at the bus stop
