lyrics

I prayed to Jesus--
It helped me none.
I prayed to myself--
It helped a ton.

I prayed to the Lord--
Got nothing done.
I prayed to what I believe in--
I am the one.

I lost my power
When I relied
Every waking hour
On his word, I’d abide.

Idling latent
I never got what I hoped for--
I tried being patient,
But I admit I did get bored.

I prayed to Jesus--
It helped me none.
I prayed to myself--
It helped a ton.

I prayed to the Almighty--
Wish I hadn’t prayed.
I prayed to what I believe in--
I am a man self-made.

Don’t give me trouble
(No, don’t give me that.)
I’m fine with myself--
No, don’t give me any flack.

I like myself--
It’s who I am.
I believe in myself--
Don’t give a damn about being damned.
