Lonely People
Father McKay |Gave a sermon at the church today|Then he told us that our souls were saved|As the basket came around||Help us he cried|We traded money for some peace of mind|We gave our pity to the ones outside|And the freedom that they found||(chorus)|Lonely people gather round the steeple|Catch em while they're running |Better catch em while they're running|All the hurtful gather them in circles|Catch em while they're running|Better catch them as they're running away|Looking for the way||Church bells ring|As we march below a choir sings|A peaceful hymn to keep our conscious clean|From the sins we need to hide||But there's been foul play|In comes the law to take father McKay|Knocks down a nun to make his getaway|In disbelief we head outside||(repeat chorus)|
