Sacred Profanity: God made Adam, Man should not be alone Then came Eve, but Heaven should’ve known From her looks skin deep, and her heart half asleep For man’s soul on earth, no price was ever so steep Samson met Delilah, laid his head on her knees Delilah got to begging, “Samson, honey, please” Tell me all your secrets, and tell me, please, no lies And let me cut those locks of hair out of your eyes…” Oh, it’ll always be this deal Until the deal goes down A curse wrapped in a prayer Thirst for the drink that makes you drown Ahab might have been alright, might’ve been quite well Had he never took so kindly to that wicked Jezebel She told him to do this, and told him to do that All the while he knew better, she told him where it’s at Oh, it’ll always be this deal Until the deal goes down A curse wrapped in a prayer Thirst for the drink that makes you drown David loved Bathsheba, he called her to his throne While Uriah was a’sleeping in the trenches all alone Between those earthly tugs and sweet heavenly hugs It’s amazing what you can do with a wink and a shrug Oh, it’ll always be this deal Until the deal goes down A curse wrapped in a prayer...
