I donโt know
ย
Well, I went to the holy man and I confessed
look, I can beat my breast
with the best
And Iโll say almost anything that gets me blessed
Upon request
XYZ
ย
I donโt know where to start
Thereโs so much I could show
but how far, Lord, but how far can I go? I donโt know
ย
If you ask me to love me on a bed of spice
now that might be nice
once or twice
But donโt look for sacraments or sacrifice, theyโre not worth the price
Itโs easy to have yourself a fine affair. Your bodyโs always ready, but your soulโs not there
Donโt count on trust
come love, come lust
Itโs so easy when you just donโt care
What I need I donโt have
what I have I donโt own
what I own I donโt want
what I want, Lord, I donโt know
If you ask me to sing you verse thatโs versatile
Iโll be glad to beguile you for a while
But donโt look for content beneath the style
sit back and smile
Itโs easy for you to dig my jim jam jive
and, baby, please observe how neatly I survive
And what could give
more positive
plain proof that living is easy when youโre
half alive
If I could Iโd confess
Good and loud, nice and slow, Lord
Easy, easy
Beatam Mariam semper Virginem, precor
Beatum Michaelem Archangelum, ideo precor
Beatum Joannem Baptistam
sanctos Apostolos Petrum et Paulum. Omnes sanctos
et vos, fratres
orare pro me
ad Dominum Deum nostrum
What I say I donโt feel
what I feel I donโt show
what I show isnโt real
what is real, Lord, I donโt know, no, no, no
I donโt know
Come on, Lord, if youโre so great show me how where to go
Show me now, I canโt wait, maybe itโs too late, Lord
I donโt know
Confiteor
Celebrant (speaking) God forgive you
All (speaking) God forgive us all
Celebrant (speaking) God be with you
All (speaking) And with your spirit
Celebrant (speaking) Let us pray
