Thank God that this man is still trying to work out his salvation in fear and trembling.

None of us—not even you—are saints… yet!

Yes!

I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day
Overtime hours for bullshit pay
So I can sit out here and waste my life away
Drag back home and drown my troubles away


It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is

Livin' in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond, Lord knows they all
Just wanna have total control
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end
'Cause of rich men north of Richmond

I wish politicians would look out for miners
And not just minors on an island somewhere
Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat
And the obese milkin' welfare

Well, God, if you're 5-foot-3 and you're 300 pounds
Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds
Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground
'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down

Lord, it's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is

Livin' in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond, Lord knows they all
Just wanna have total control
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end
'Cause of rich men north of Richmond

I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day
Overtime hours for bullshit pay

I'll give him credit for reading a deprecatory Psalm on stage, even if he does use the Prot Psalm "37". 



* The correct DRBO translation of Psalm 36:12-20 is:

Quote
 12 The sinner shall watch the just man: and shall gnash upon him with his teeth.  13 But the Lord shall laugh at him: for he foreseeth that his day shall come.  14 The wicked have drawn out the sword: they have bent their bow. To cast down the poor and needy, to kill the upright of heart.  15 Let their sword enter into their own hearts, and let their bow be broken.

 16 Better is a little to the just, than the great riches of the wicked.  17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken in pieces; but the Lord strengtheneth the just.  18 The Lord knoweth the days of undefiled; and their inheritance shall be for ever.  19 They shall not be confounded in the evil time; and in the days of famine they shall be filled:  20 Because the wicked shall perish. And the enemies of the Lord, presently after they shall be honoured and exalted, shall come to nothing and vanish like smoke.
