Letter to a Mad Woman
One, a-two
One, two, three
A letter came to him today
Said you really should obey
What an utter outrage
Someone could think that way
She said, "You better start to pray
If all you people wanna get saved
We're perfection, you're a disgrace
Make no mistake"
Now he's just passing the days, oh
Trying not to feel blue
But it's all he can stand
They keep on feeding him the lies, oh
Nothing else he can do
But to hope and to pray for this madness to end
But it won't, so he's back in his gloom
Sir, you mean to imply
What I've said, it's all a lie
Well, can you look me in the eye
And justify?
Well, I think you've all gone mad
There's so much loving to be had
Change your tune and I'll be glad
Tolerance ain't no fad
Now he's just passing the days, oh
Trying not to feel blue
But it's all he can stand
And they keep on feeding him the lies, oh
Nothing else he can do
But to hope and to pray for this nonsense to change
But it won't, saw his face in his room
You offer solution
I'm hearing confusion
You stand there so proud and confident
I'm only one person
It could be so much worse
And you say I must change what I believe
It's true, ooh-ooh, oh-oh-oh-oh
They keep on feeding us the lies, oh
Nothing else for us to do
But to hope and to pray for this dust to disappear
So we all see a little more clear
One, two, three
A letter came to him today
Said you really should obey
What an utter outrage
Someone could think that way
She said, "You better start to pray
If all you people wanna get saved
We're perfection, you're a disgrace
Make no mistake"
Now he's just passing the days, oh
Trying not to feel blue
But it's all he can stand
They keep on feeding him the lies, oh
Nothing else he can do
But to hope and to pray for this madness to end
But it won't, so he's back in his gloom
Sir, you mean to imply
What I've said, it's all a lie
Well, can you look me in the eye
And justify?
Well, I think you've all gone mad
There's so much loving to be had
Change your tune and I'll be glad
Tolerance ain't no fad
Now he's just passing the days, oh
Trying not to feel blue
But it's all he can stand
And they keep on feeding him the lies, oh
Nothing else he can do
But to hope and to pray for this nonsense to change
But it won't, saw his face in his room
You offer solution

You stand there so proud and confident

And you say I must change what I believe
It's true, ooh-ooh, oh-oh-oh-oh
They keep on feeding us the lies, oh
Nothing else for us to do
But to hope and to pray for this dust to disappear
So we all see a little more clear
