Profanity Prayers Lyrics - Modern Guilt - Beck

In a cast iron cage you couldn't help but stare like a creature 

With the laws of a brothel and the fireproof bones of a preacher 

And your lingo coined from the sacrament of a casino 

On a government loan with a guillotine in your libido 

Who's gonna answer 

Profanity prayers 

Who's gonna answer 

These profanity prayers 

Well you know how it looks when you pull all your books from the table 

And you stare into space trying to discern what to say now 

And you wait at the light and watch for a sign that you're breathing 

'Cause you can't just live on air and float to the ceiling 

Who's gonna answer 

Profanity prayers 

Who's gonna answer 

Profanity prayers
