[Verse 1]
You’re a fool on your back
With a book in your hand and no handle on fun
You got the power to think
And a heart with a beat but you’re using just one
I feel you looking at me
As if you’re hoping to see I got a fork for a tongue
'Cause I’m a son of a gun
Thank goodness you’ve come
[Chorus 1]
I’m saved, hallelujah, hallelujah, halle–
I’m saved, hallelujah, hallelujah, halle–
Too late, what’s it to ya? What's it to ya? What's it–
I’m saved, hallelujah, hallelujah, halle–
[Verse 2]
I‘d like a kick in the teeth
Or a pat on the back if we’re taking it slow
Maybe a sword in my side
To siphon the life, create a venomous flow
You’ve got no message to preach
There’s not a love you can teach that I don’t already know
‘Cause I’m a son of a gun
And I’ll wait till you’re done
[Chorus 1]
I’m saved, hallelujah, hallelujah, halle–
I’m saved, hallelujah, hallelujah, halle–
Too late, what’s it to ya? What's it to ya? What's it–
I’m saved, hallelujah, hallelujah, halle–
[Verse 3]
Now I’m not sure of much
But of love, you can bet that I ain’t ever wrong
It’s a thrill and a rush
'Cause one moment it’s here and the next it is gone
Chop me up into bits
Put a pinch on my lip and call a feather a tonne
‘Cause I’m a son of a gun
Thank goodness you’ve come
‘Cause I’m a son of a gun
‘Cause I’m a son of a gun
And I’ll wait till you’re done
‘Cause I’m a son of a gun
[Chorus 1]
I’m saved, hallelujah, hallelujah, halle–
I’m saved, hallelujah, hallelujah, halle–
Too late, what’s it to ya? What's it to ya? What's it–
I’m saved, hallelujah, hallelujah, halle–
[Chorus 2]
Don’t wait for me, hunter, I’m in front of you forever
Don’t hate on my feeling that you’re kneeling, you’re a dancer
Just take, take a moment, slow your movement, now go faster
I’m saved, not a loser, 'cause you used to hallelujah
