Thoughts and Prayers - Anthony Jeselnik

Hello stranger, the girl's in danger But you won't fight hard enough to save her Said it ain't your issue 'cause it ain't your sister It ain't your missus You don't get it, do ya? 'Cause if that were me I would've, ooh Maybe I would've thought for a second And said maybe I shouldn't There's blood on my hands after all, oh God There's blood on my hands after all Bow my head, said my prayers I'm the good one, ain't I? Wash my hands of all my sins I'm the good guy, ain't I? If everyone were like me Could that be the change I'd like to see? Ain't I good? Ain't I right? Did I try? But if I care I'd give more than thoughts and prayers Said the burden's more than yours to bear But ego's on my side Am I as good as I say if I try? Do we try, we try, we try? Oh, we try, we try, we try? Hello partner, the world's got problems But you won't work hard enough to solve 'em 'Cause you hate Christians and you hate Muslims And you might kill over race and colour If that happened to someone that I knew Then I would've probably laughed at his race jokes when I shouldn't 'Cause there's blood on my hands after all Blood on my hands after all Bow my head, said my prayers I'm the good one, ain't I? Wash my hands of all my sins I'm the good guy, ain't I? If everyone were like me Could that be the change I'd like to see? Ain't I good? Ain't I right? Did I try? But if I care Oh, I'd give more than thoughts and prayers I said the burden's more than yours to bear, oh yeah Oh, but ego's on my side Am I as good as I say if I won't try? Oh, do we try, do we try, do we try Oh, oh yeah (do we try?) Do we try (do we try?) Sing, do we try, do we try? Am I as good as say if I don't try? Bow my head, said my prayers (oh, no, no, no, no) Wash my hands of all my sins Said l'd wash it off, I'd wash it off, yeah Ooh, oh, oh, oh (ooh yeah)

I've been lately thinking about my life's time All the things I've done, how it's been And I can't help believing in my own mind I know I'm gonna hate to see it end I've seen a lot of sunshine, slept out in the rain Spent a night or two all on my own I've known my lady's pleasures, had myself some friends And spent a night or two in my own home I have to say it now, it's been a good life, all in all It's really fine to have a chance to hang around And lie there by the fire and watch the evening tire While all my friends and my old lady sit and pass the pipe around Talk of poems and prayers and promises and things that we believe in How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care How long it's been since yesterday and what about tomorrow? What about our dreams and all the memories we share? The days they pass so quickly now, nights are seldom long Time around me whispers when it's cold The changes somehow frighten me, still I have to smile It turns me on to think of growing old For though my life's been good to me there's still so much to do So many things my mind's never known I'd like to raise a family, I'd like to sail away And dance across the mountains on the moon, yes I would I have to say it now, it's been a good life, all in all It's really fine to have the chance to hang around And lie there by the fire and watch the evening tire While all my friends and my old lady, sit and watch the sun go down Talk of poems and prayers and promises and things that we believe in How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care How long it's been since yesterday and what about tomorrow? What about our dreams and all the memories we share?

You look beautiful, but you feel so low Why you going to party that way? (Mhmm) I could let it play through another show But I don't wanna hear sorry again 'Cause I'm starting to think that when I'm not by your side That you telling me, telling me lies You can act like nothing's wrong In a place you don't belong Up until you walk into the light, whoa But you can't tell where you are Probably trippin' over stars Or are you stumbling down the boulevard? Gonna keep you in my prayers tonight (Deep down, deep down you know) (Deep down, deep down you know) (Deep down, deep down you know) (Know you're not that innocent) I know I'm the only one that you wanna touch But you know you've been a handful And I can handle a lot, yeah I'mma turn it off 'cause I care too much Heard you say you're being careful, I know you're not 'Cause I know you don't know when to stop You can act like nothing's wrong In a place you don't belong Up until you walk into the light, whoa But you can't tell where you are Probably trippin' over stars Or are you stumbling down the boulevard? Gonna keep you in my prayers tonight (Deep down, deep down you know) Know you're not that innocent (Deep down, deep down you know) You know it turns me on You can act like nothing's wrong In a place you don't belong Up until you walk into the light, whoa But you can't tell where you are Probably trippin' over stars Or are you stumbling down the boulevard? Gonna keep you in my prayers tonight (Deep down, deep down you know) (Deep down, deep down you know) (Deep down, deep down you know) Gonna keep you in my prayers tonight (Deep down, deep down you know) (Deep down, deep down you know) (Deep down, deep down you know) Gonna keep you in my prayers tonight
