"God Forbids" lyrics

Grandpa fought in Germany, and Daddy was a spy
Mother made a home for me and taught me not to lie
My brothers and my sisters became Christians and had kids
And I've been out here doing all the things that God forbids
Yeah, I've been out here doing all the things
That God forbids

Oh, I thought about the army when the towers tumbled down
I tried to be a husband, and I died in China Town
They say there's calm for everyone, I'm pretty sure there is
I'll find it while I'm doing all the things that God forbids
I'll find it while I'm doing all the things
That God forbids

Oh, I've never heard a promise that I honestly believe
So I haven't found a lover that I couldn't learn to leave
But I'm trying not to worry, and I'm easy to forgive
So I'll be out here doing all the things that God forbids
Yeah, I'll be out here doing all the things
That God forbids

Now I'm late for every party, but I'm grateful for my friends
'Cause I know they'll spread my ashes on the ocean when it ends
So sing with me in revelry for how a heathen lives
And I'll be out here doing all the things that God forbids
'Cause I've been out here doing all the things that God forbids
I'll find it while I'm doing all the things
That God forbids
