Need a Favor - Intellectual

[Chorus]

I only talk to God when I need a favor

And I only pray when I ain't got a prayer

So who the hell am I, who the hell am I to expect a savior, oh

If I only talk to God when I need a favor?

But, God, I need a favor

[Verse 1]

I know amazin' grace, but I ain't been livin' them words

Swear I spend most Sundays

Drunk off my ass than I have at church

Hard cover King James

Only been savin' dust on the nightstand

And I don't know what to say

By the time I fold my hands

[Chorus]

I only talk to God when I need a favor

And I only pray when I ain't got a prayer

So who the hell am I, who the hell am I to expect a savior, oh

If I only talk to God when I need a favor?

But, God, I need a favor

[Post-Chorus]

Amen, amen

[Verse 2]

Yeah, I owe you more than one

And beggars can't be choosers

But I'll pay for all I've done

Just pleasе don't let me lose hеr

[Chorus]

I only talk to God when I need a favor

And I only pray when I ain't got a prayer

So who the hell am I, who the hell am I to expect a savior, oh

If I only talk to God when I need a favor?

But, God, I need a favor

[Post-Chorus]

Amen, amen

[Bridge]

Hangin' in there just barely

Throwin' up prayers like Hail Marys

If You're still there, Lord, spare me

Oh, my God, oh, my God, Hail Mary

Hangin' in there just barely

Throwin' up prayers like Hail Marys

If You're still there, Lord, spare me

Oh, my God, oh, my God, Hail Mary

[Chorus]

I only talk to God when I need a favor

And I only pray when I ain't got a prayer

So tell me, who the hell am I to expect a savior

When I only talk to God if I need a favor?

And, God, I need a favor

[Post-Chorus]

Amen

God, I need a favor

Woah

Amen
