From the recording Cancer
Lyrics
You sit there all alone
The lights are on but no one else is home
You’re all alone
In a crowded room you wait
In a crowded church you hesitate
‘Til it’s too late
You’re a Cancer on the body of our Lord Jesus Christ
You’re a Cancer on the body
Who saved you to criticize?
Criticize
All your life
You criticize
Stuff it down, stuff it down
Stuff the pain so far down inside
I know you tried
But it comes out your mouth
Out your bitter mouth- I know you tried
And then you died
You’re a Cancer on the body of our Lord Jesus Christ
You’re a Cancer on the body
Who saved you to criticize?
Criticize
All your life
You criticize
I can’t linger long at you
There’s no telling what I might do, it’s true
When I look at you
I see a mirror in your eye
And though I try hard to deny, it’s true
I’m just like you
I’m a Cancer on the body of our Lord Jesus Christ
I’m a Cancer on the body
Who saved me to criticize?
Criticize
All my life
I criticize
