Dexter

Heading down the high way
270 South to where I need to be
Calling God on my cell phone
Even though he's fast asleep

Cause I'm sick and squirming
With agony inside
And my baby sits beside me
Water slipping from his eyes

Well, God lays on his mattress
Or on his couch or on the floor
A cat on his chest, drool spilling from his lips
And a sign on his front door

Well, this ride can't go fast enough
And my God, I want that rush
While he's nodding out on top of Murray Hill
I'm praying my God will calm this ill
Oh, my God, my God

Sign says come to me whenever
But only if I say so
And only when you need me
And only when you pass go

And only on pay day
And only when you're hurting
And only when you're starving
And only when the wound stings

Well, this ride is long enough
And my God, I want that rush
While he's nodding out on top of Murray Hill
I'm praying this void will be filled
By my God, oh my God

Now I don't know what you've been told
But this highway feels awfully cold
When black and white and brown is gold
And all the shit you had got sold
You feel like this fate should have been foretold
Except it's like you've got a blindfold
Over eyes that are completely controlled

By the ride that's taken long enough
Oh, my God, I'm dying for that rush
While he's nodding out on top of Murray Hill
I'm praying my God will love me still
Oh, my God, my God
