Never Went To Church Lyrics - Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living - Streets

Two great European narcotics 

Alcohol and Christianity 

I know which one I prefer 

We never went to church 

Just get on with work and sometimes things'll hurt 

But it hits me since you left us 

And it's so hard not to search 

If you were still about 

I'd ask you what I'm supposed to do now 

I just get a bit scared 

Every now, hope I made you proud 

On your birthday when mum passed the forks and spoons 

I put my head on the table, I was so distraught with you 

You tidied your things into the bin, the more poorly you grew 

So there's nothing of yours to hold or to talk to 

You put your hand up and interrupt the conversation with a, but 

People say I interrupt, people with the same look 

Sometimes I think so hard, I can't remember how your face looked 

Started reading about dreams in your favorite book 

I panic and pace when I can't see the right thing to do 

You'd be scratching your head through the best advice you knew 

And I feel sad, I can't hear you reciting it through 

I miss you dad, but I've got nothing to remind me of you 

We never went to church 

Just get on with work and sometimes things'll hurt 

But it hits me since you left us 

And it's so hard not to search 

If you were still about 

I'd ask you what I'm supposed to do now 

I just get a bit scared 

Every now, hope I made you proud 

I needed a break when your book about dreams was taken 

I needed to pray or see a priest that day 

I needed to leave this trade and just heave it away 

But I cleaned up my place like you so I could see things straight 

I never cared about God when life was sailin' in the calm 

So I said I'd get my head down and I'd deal with the ache in my heart 

And for that if God exists, I'd reckon he'd pay me regard 

Mom says me and you are the same from the start 

I guess than you did leave me something to remind me of you 

Every time I interrupt someone like you used to 

When I do something like you, you'll be on my mind or through 

'Cause I forgot you left me behind to remind me of you 

We never went to church 

Just get on with work and sometimes things'll hurt 

But it hits me since you left us 

And it's so hard not to search 

If you were still about 

I'd ask you what I'm supposed to do now 

I just get a bit scared 

Every now, hope I made you proud 

We never went to church 

Just get on with work and sometimes things'll hurt 

But it hits me since you left us 

And it's so hard not to search 

But you, you still tell me 

How you didn't know what to do even now 

And then I'm not so scared somehow 

'Cause I know that you'd be proud 

I got a good one for you dad 

I'm gonna see a priest 

A Rabbi and a Protestant clergyman 

You always said, I should hedge my bets
