"Make Me Over" lyrics
"Make Me Over"
I'm talking to the priest
The high priest
And all of y'all out there in the universe
If what I'm saying is wrong
Tell me the right way to say it
'Cause I wanna be done over
Paint me red, oh, paint me green
Give me liberty, oh, wash me clean
Make me over, make me twice
'Cause when I'm done, Lord, I wanna be right
Hey, Lord, make me over
I wanna be done over
Hey, Lord, make me over
I wanna be done over
Make me smart, make me keen
Give me a lot, ah, give me steam
I want eternal beauty, spiritual things
'Cause when I'm done, oh, I wanna be a good thing
Hey, Lord, make me over
I wanna be done over
Hey, Lord, make me over
I wanna be done over
Hey, Lord, listen to me
I wanna go places, I wanna do some things
I wanna be a star, oh, I wanna have a big name
And in my heart, let beauty reign
'Cause when I'm done, oh, I wanna have fame
Hey, Lord, make me over
I wanna be made over
Oh, Lord, make me over
I wanna be done over
Lord make me nice, make me good
Lord, give me power, give me love
Lord, give me everything, everything
I wanna be desirable, tantalizing, voluptuous
Hey, Lord, make me over
I wanna be made over
Hey, Lord, make me over
I wanna be done over
I wanna be done over
I wanna be done over
I wanna be done over
How 'bout doing me twice?
Make sure I'm only right
Hey, Lord, listen to me
Oh, Lord, oh, Lord
Oh, Lord, please, make me over
I wanna second chance
And before I come back down here to this earth
When I come back this time, I wanna be in demand
And, Lord, do a good job on me
Make me over, I wanna be made over
