You're Blessed

Keep on looking for the place you left

You'll find it when you're laid to rest

Problem is you'd like to taste it

Every chance you get

Some drink it till the need subsides

Some see it in prescription dose

These people get to meet their maker

By trying to get too close



And when the hurt you brave

Brings you less than what you plan

You find the closest thing to reason

That you can



And when she takes you in her arms

Love feels like the wrath of God

When she takes you in her arms

Remember, remember how you're blessed



I've seen the sort of thing

For which the seekers search

Looked a little like a visitation

Felt so good it hurt

This mortal curtain

Hides a big secret till you die

While I'm between certificates

I would like to see what's behind



And when she takes you in her arms

Love feels like the wrath of God

When she takes you in her arms

Remember, remember how you're blessed



You're blessed

My seventh son, you're saved

Stop your praying man

Conditions have - more than have been met



She brings the pearly gates

Within reach of living man

You'll hold the key, have faith

She'll put it in your hand



When she takes you in her arms

Love feels like the wrath of God

When she takes you in her arms

Remember, remember how you're blessed



You're blessed

My seventh son, you're saved

You're blessed

Conditions have been met

Count your blessings, man

As she's undressing tonight
