I Have Forgiven Jesus

I was a good kid
I wouldn't do you no harm
I was a nice kid
with a nice paper-round
Forgive me any pain
I may have brung to you
with God's help I know
I'll always be near to you
but Jesus hurt me
when he deserted me / but
I have forgiven Jesus
for all the desire
He placed in me when there's nothing I can do
with this desire

I was a good kid
through hail and snow I'd go
just to moon you
I carried my heart in my hand
do you understand?
do you understand?
but Jesus hurt me
when he deserted me, but
I have forgiven Jesus
for all of the love
He placed in me
when there's no-one I can turn to with this love

Monday - humiliation
Tuesday - suffocation
Wendesday - condescension
Thursday - is pathetic
by Friday - life has killed me
by Friday - life has killed me

Ooh, pretty world
Ooh, pretty world

Why did you give me
so much desire?
when there is nowhere I can go
to offload this desire
Why did you give me
so much love
in a loveless world
when there is no-one I can turn to
to unlock all this love
and why did you stick me in
self-deprecating bones and skin
Jesus - do you hate me?
Why did you stick me in
self-deprecating bones and skin
do you hate me? do you hate me?
do you hate me? do you hate me?
do you hate me?
