[Verse 1]

There's a cry that is heard in the city

From Vivian at Pentecost Lane

A shriekin' and dancing till 4 a.m

Another night of muscles and pain

I love you despite your convictions

That God never laughs at my jokes


[Chorus]

I'm a young man at odds with the Bible

But I don't pretend faith never works

When we're down on our knees

Prayin' at the bus stop


[Verse 2]

Now Jesus, He came in a vision

And offered you redemption from sin

I'm not sayin' that I don't believe you

But are you sure that it really was Him

I've been told that it could've been blue cheese

Or the meal that we ate down the road


[Chorus]

I'm a young man at odds with the Bible

But I don't pretend faith never works

When we're down on our knees

Prayin' at the bus stop


[Outro]

Hallelujah!
