Hey there, Father

I don't wanna bother you

But I've got a sin to confess

I'm just 16 if you know what I mean

Do you mind if I take off my dress?

Don't know where to start

Let me get to the good parts

Might wanna cross up your legs

I've got envy, I've got greed, anything that you need

And I'm not above having to beg

There was this boy who tore my heart in two

I had to lay him eight feet underground

All I need is someone to save me

Cause I am goin' down

And what I need is someone to save me

Cause I am goin' down, all the way down

Well, hey there, Father

There is just one other thing

I have a simple request

I hear you know God could you give him a nod in my direction

I would be in your debt

Perhaps there is something that we could work out

I noticed your breathing is starting to change

We could go in the back behind all these stacks of bibles

And get out of this cage

There was this boy who tore my heart in two

I had to lay him eight feet underground

All I need is someone to save me

Cause I am goin' down

And what I need is someone to save me

Cause God, I'm goin' down, all the way down

I didn't wanna do it, Father

But I caught him with another woman in the bed I made him

So I put him in a grave

And now there's no one left around to get me off

When I want it to drag

The next day on the television they identified him

By the circumsicion that I made and now I'm on the run

But wait, why did I have to go and kill him

When he was the best I'd ever had

All I need is someone to save me

Cause I am goin' down

And what I need is something to save me

Cause God, I'm goin' down, all the way down

I'm goin' down

All the way down
