I Have Forgiven Jesus
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus 1]
I have forgiven you, Jesus
For all the desire
He placed in me when there's nothing I can do
With this desire
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus 2]
I have forgiven you, Jesus
For all of the love
He placed in me
When there's no-one I can turn to with this love
[Verse 3]
Monday, humiliation
Tuesday, suffocation
Wednesday, condescension
Thursday is pathetic
By Friday, life has killed me
By Friday, life has killed me
Oh, pretty one
Oh, pretty one
[Outro]
Why did you give me
So much desire?
When there is nowhere I can go
To offload this desire
And why did you give me
So much love
In a loveless world
When there's 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?
