Blessings From the Couch
I asked for all your blessings today
So I could give back to you
All the fortune and fame known to man
Not sure how it is I could use
I'm sure I'll think of something Lord
If you'd just give to me
I'll be sitting right here on my couch
Waiting patiently...
...I'm still here waiting
Not quite sure you heard
Don't want to be a bother Lord
So I wont speak another word...
Okay...one more word
Then I'll hold my tongue
Right after this last request
I'm sure I will be done
Perhaps I can do without the fame
But the fortune would be nice
I'm kind of in a hurry here
So could you please pick up the pace...
It' been more than a few days now
And I'm still here on my couch
I now know that you took your time
So I'd have time to figure out
That if I do nothing but sit around
And never venture out
The only fame I'll see is on my T.V.
And the only fortune...
The loose change that's in my couch
