Late for Church Lyrics


Tendencies that bring us

to our knees

see, there's no unity

just a thousand different ways

Time for church

Oh really, let's see

Do the Jew and Gentile

really need to agree?

What 'cha reading?

Did you think I'd be surprised?

You're the pastor's cash cow

But the good book still survives

But I'm late for church

I'm really late for church...

I don't want to dress up nice

I just want to stay home

I feel like watching big screen TV

with NFL on the VCR

and Pink Floyd on the DVD

I'm late for church - late for church

I'm late for church.

Now get in the car

or there could be trouble

why can't I just go back to sleep

It's long past 10 am...

From the Vatican

to the Rio Grande

Everything is dying

But I ain't weeping no more

In my school of thought

Religion reaping naught

It must be what I've bought

and they ain't selling any more

I don't want to dress up nice

I just want to stay home

I feel like watching big screen TV

with NFL on the VCR

and Pink Floyd on the DVD

I'm late for church - late for church

I'm late for church.

I'll get in the car

if you answer my question

Why so many churches here?

I thought there was only one God.
