| "If you've seen one cathedral | |
| Then baby you've seen 'em all" | |
| I asked her what they were like | |
| She told me they were tall | |
| She said "If there's a God and he's heard one prayer | |
| Then baby, he's heard 'em all" | |
| She said "He never thinks of his mother | |
| Only remembers when she calls" | |
| She said, "Diamonds ain't no friend of mine | |
| And that's just fine | |
| If you ain't got nothing, <--- wrong | |
| You still got something to find <--- wrong | |
| It's a hard life by design | |
| But harder still | |
| Harder still sitting round waiting for signs | |
| All we always are | |
| We're always in time | |
| All we always are | |
| We're always blind" | |
| "I ain't afraid to face my fate | |
| cuz there ain't no fate to face | |
| You'd think if there was a God | |
| He'd have better things to do | |
| Than sit around answering prayers | |
| From the likes of you | |
| She said he's got a father | |
| But neither of them remember | |
| So neither of them calls" |
