Devil Boy

I slept through Easter, yesterday
 Right through Christmas, just the same
 The priest came up to me, all up in arms
 He said, "Devil boy, what have you done?"
 Hey, devil boy
 We're going to blow your house in
 Hey devil boy, what do you think of that?
 For heaven's sakes
 It's only been two thousand years
 I can't wait any longer for you
 The Jesuits rolled in their tanks, to my front door
 While the Capuchins held in loving, on my front porch
 The Augustinians kept to themselves, stuck their tongues out in a row
 They said, "Devil boy, it's off to hell you go!"
 Hey, devil boy
 We're going to blow your house in
 Hey, devil boy
 What do you think of that?
 For heaven's sakes
 It's only been two thousand years
 I can't wait, any longer for you
 And so I'll sit and pray, for her to call me there
 And I'll burn that bridge a thousand times, on the cross I bear
 Just to wonder if you're listening, from the soapbox in the sky
 To finally realize my price was it you or I?
 Hey, devil boy,
 We're going to blow your house in
 Hey, devil boy
 What do you think of that?
 For heaven's sakes
 It's only been two thousand years
 I can't wait any longer, for you
 For heaven's sakes
 I'd give away eternity
 If you would come back to me
 If you would come back to me
 If you would come back to me
 If you would come back to me
