Track 4 on The Great Impersonator
Letter To God (1974) Lyrics
[Intro]
Did you like how that sounded?
Did you [?] that [?] or was that a [?] one?
Oh-oh

[Verse 1]
I don’t wanna go to grandma’s, so I’m quiet on the drive
I don’t wanna go to grandma’s, so I’m quiet on the drive
I saw a deer that must’ve gotten hit, it made me start to cry
Did he have a mom and dad and do they argue just like mine?
Did he have a little brother that annoyed him all the time?
Did he wanna be a grown up?

[Interlude]
You’re gonna need to come in on that first part
Come in while she’s singing
Okay
Yeah

[Verse 2]
Did he wanna be grown up?
Were there trees he liked to climb?
Thеre’s a boy I went to school with who had leukеmia at five
Now his parents gave him everything, they never yell or fight
They never make him cut his hair because they’re happy he survived
He didn’t have to clean his room, it was enough to be alive
When I was little, I was jealous, and I’d say a prayer at night
Well, I’d say
See upcoming pop shows

[Chorus]
Please, God, I wanna be sick
I don’t wanna hurt so get it over with quick
Please, God, I wanna be loved
I don’t wanna be somebody they wanna get rid of
Please, God, I wanna be sick
I don’t wanna hurt so get it over with quick
Please, God, I wanna be loved
I don’t wanna be somebody they wanna get rid of
