I’ll be your waiter this evening 
Your wish is my command 
You lie there like a duchess 
With your finger in demand 
In the house of the dyslexic 
Lemme tell you I'm a spy 
Deceptive and denying 
But I never tell a lie 
There but for the grace of God 
There but for the grace of God 
There but for the grace of God go I 
Ooh my my 
In the land of good'n'plenty 
The customer is king 
Hindsight's always 20/20 
And it don't achieve a thing 
I'm driving but the brakes are out 
And the bridge is out atop 
But it ain't the fall that kills you 
You know it's the sudden stop 
There but for the grace of God 
There but for the grace of God 
There but for the grace of God go I 
There but for the grace of God 
There but for the grace of God 
I'm not a crook - I cannot tell a lie 
There but for the grace of God 
There but for the grace of God 
There but for the grace of God go I 
My oh my 
Been smokin' like a chimney 
I just can't put out this fire 
Garbage blockin' all the exits 
Hey, are you callin' me a liar? 
I'm thru tip-toeing on eggshells 
Chained to the slave majority 
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger 
That must make me Hercules 
There but for the grace of God 
There but for the grace of God 
There but for the grace of God go I 
My oh my 
I been turned out of places all over town 
My smile is a frown turned upside down 
There but for the grace of God go I
I sharpened this pencil with my teeth 
And fuelled it with grief and disbelief 
There but for the grace of God go I
Stied eyes and heavy sighs 
Reluctant thighs and sad goodbyes 
There but for the grace of God go I
This rifting drift is an aching yearn 
With no deposit and no return 
There but for the grace of God go I
My oh my
