I think I'm headed for a terrible accident
Made more plans than anyone who ever paid their rent
I'm not stupid and I might be havin' too much pride
Surgeon General has determined that I may as well die

Jesus are you watching or have you gone blind?
Evil souls are upon us and we're surely runnin' out of time

I tried religion and some holy roller steals my tenth
In the grave yard I ain't strong enough to jump the fence
Some men they say they got more soul than both my shoes
Makes me wonder, can we ever stop payin' dues?

I might be workin' on a scene that I can never act
Everybody's gonna think that my mind is cracked
I don't care because it's my right to win or lose
Makes me wonder can we ever stop payin' dues?

Crazy, am I crazy for wanting so much more?
My mind says, I can't ever give up but I still can't be sure

I tried religion and some holy roller steals my tenth
In the grave yard I ain't strong enough to jump the fence
Some men they say they got more soul than both my shoes
Makes me wonder, can we ever stop payin' dues?

Can we ever stop payin' dues?
Can we ever stop payin' dues?
Can we ever stop payin' dues?
