Billionaire Mother Theresas

(Daniel Cioper)
All my sorrows rain down on me.
Like a slow setting sun I bleed.
On this treadmill life I'm
never fully free.
I tell myself patience, patience.

Oh who in shining eyes I wonder.
Would ever be the
lighting to my thunder.
For I'm so tired of
striking them
cold-iron faces, its
freedom, freedom.

So have patience, patience
(ooh the lord is on your side)
Baby baby
(aw it's such a lonely ride)
Have patience patience.

In light of all my accomplishments
if I could ever find out
where they went
I could live or die
but as long as I'm alive
it's striving, striving.

For all else would be a show.
White face, dark eyes,
and shiny nose.
For life just kicks you down
in some old town
but I'm just counting
my graces with
believing believing.

So play ball, play ball.
Baby, baby.
Have patience, patience.

Time creeps slowly
aw but surely
all will be undone.
Aw but surely
all is holy unless
it never exists.
And you can live your life
inside you eyes
and never see the other side
if reading funny pages
makes you smile.
But there are those of us
who got no trust
in billionaire Mother Theresas
we ain't sittin',
waiting for you.....
to realize.

Have patience, patience
(oh the universe is on your side)
Baby, baby
(aw it's such a lonely ride)
Have patience, patience.

Hey, are you praying every
day just saying thanks.
Well, are you saving all your
pay just paying rent.
Have patience, patience.
