Lyrics
Everybody's got something to preach
Doesn't matter who you are
Or if you're out of reach
Who are you to tell me I'm going straight to hell
'Cause everybody's got something to preach
Something to sell
I met a crazy street preacher on the corner just the other day, shoutin' at everybody passin' by
He said I'd better change my ways if I wanna get saved
For when his spaceship comes to take everybody away
Everybody's got something to preach
Doesn't matter who you are
Or if you're out of reach
Who are you to tell me I'm going straight to hell
'Cause everybody's got something to preach
Something to sell
I know a guy who's a non-believer
Thinks we're all alone in this universe
Tries so hard to make me see things his way, oh yeah
I guess misery just loves company
Everybody's got something to preach
Doesn't matter who you are
Or if you're out of reach
Who are you to tell me I'm going straight to hell
'Cause everybody's got something to preach
Something to sell
And when I die, I guess I'll really know for sure
What's waiting out there in heaven on the other side
People everywhere tryin' to find their way
You go your way, I'll go mine
Still I hope to see you on the other side
