0:43They say that you'll hear
0:49If you're really listening
0:55And pray for that feeling
0:59Of grace
1:07But that's what I'm doing
1:13Why doesn't he answer
1:19I've prayed 'til I'm blue in
1:23The face
1:31The cars in the churchyard
1:37Are shiny and german
1:43Distinctly at odds with
1:49The theme of the sermon
1:55And during communion
2:01I study the people
2:07Threading themselves through
2:13The eye of the needle
2:19I know that it's wrong for
2:25The faithful to seek it
2:31But sometimes I long for
2:35A sign
2:38Anything
2:43Something to wake up
2:49The whole congregation
2:54And finally make up
2:59My mind
3:03My mind
3:07This cars in the churchyard
3:13Are shiny and german
3:19Completely at odds with
3:25The theme of the sermon
3:31All through communion
3:37I stare at the people
3:43Squeezing themselves through
3:49The eye of the needle
They say that you'll hear If you're really listening And pray for that feeling Of grace But that's what I'm doing Why doesn't he answer I've prayed 'til I'm blue in The face The cars in the churchyard Are shiny and german Distinctly at odds with The theme of the sermon And during communion I study the people Threading themselves through The eye of the needle I know that it's wrong for The faithful to seek it But sometimes I long for A sign Anything Something to wake up The whole congregation And finally make up My mind My mind This cars in the churchyard Are shiny and german Completely at odds with The theme of the sermon All through communion I stare at the people Squeezing themselves through The eye of the needle
