And the one that keeps trying to love and trust, getting himself betrayed

[Chorus 1]

Blind faith to care, blind rage to kill
Why'd he let them talk him down to cheap work and cheap thrills

[Chorus 2]

God must be a boogie man
God must be a boogie man!

[Chorus 3]
In the plan, oh, the cock-eyed plan
God must be a boogie man
God must be a boogie man!

[Outro]
