"Cup Runneth Over" lyrics

"Cup Runneth Over"

Mother Mary, come to me
In my lover's room I'm free
Scripture ripped her from my arms
But my girl, she means no harm
Promise we'll keep mighty still
Father Briant climbs our hill
Ask us why we're wrapped in wool
Laughin' like we're waggin' school

My cup runneth over, but I'll have another, please
I'll only take a lover if she walks all over me

My cup runneth over, but I'll have another, please
I'll only take a lover if she walks all over me
There's seven deadly sins, but somehow all I got was greed, yeah
I see the warnin's that I shall never heed

Sit our parents down to talk
Quote thy passage, state our faults
If God created man for me
Why am I not quite a "she"?
Yet I still kneel and I still pray
I still hear the willows sway
I still know how spirits talk
Hold my hand on all my walks

My cup runneth over, but I'll have another, please
I'll only take a lover if she walks all over me

My cup runneth over, but I'll have another, please
I'll only take a lover if she walks all over me
There's seven deadly sins, but somehow all I got was greed, yeah
I see the warnin's that I shall never

Church bell tolls don't signal love
All I hear is Christ above
Takin' notes on all my crimes
I drink ale when God made wine
Pater noster, qui es in
Sanctificetur nomen tuum
Adveniat regnum tuum
Fiat voluntas tua

My cup runneth over, but I'll have another, please
I'll only take a lover if she walks all over me
There's seven deadly sins, but somehow all I got was greed, yeah
I see the warnin's that I shall never heed
