"Fair Weather Faith" lyrics

Pretending to act so serene
On your so called submissive knees
A shopping list of begging pleas
Adds up to your complacencies

As soon as the sun don't shine your way
And you're saving it all up for that rainy day
It's a matter of time before you get down and pray

(Fair weather faith) Protect me from the storm
(Fair weather faith) I'm gonna right all my wrongs
(Fair weather faith) You know I'm doing alright
(Fair weather) Out of mind and out of sight

Well, I wonder if the man upstairs
Will bother to lend an ear
If you took the time to share
Another one of your puppet prayers

As soon as the sun don't shine your way
And you're saving it all up for that rainy day
It's a matter of time before you get down and pray

(Fair weather faith) Protect me from the storm
(Fair weather faith) I'm gonna right all my wrongs
(Fair weather faith) Ooh, you know I'm doing alright
(Fair weather)

(Fair weather faith) Protect me from the storm
(Fair weather faith) I gotta right all my wrongs
(Fair weather faith) Well, you know I'm doing alright
(Fair weather) Out of mind, out of sight

I ain't talkin', talkin' 'bout the weather
I ain't talkin'
I ain't talkin', talkin' 'bout the weather
I ain't talkin'
