Dearly Beloved

Dearly Beloved
Bad Religion

Heres a story of an honest man losing religion,
Climbing the pulpit steps before an eager congregation,
The while praying came a wicked inspiration,
Brothers , sisters this is what he said:
Dearly beloved, dearly beloved, dearly beloved,
I cant relate to you, I cant relate to you!

He was the kind of guy whod always go right out of his way,
But more before that crazy notion leapt right into his head,
And stubbornly crept into every mad perception,
I cant deny a funny feeling when he said:
Dearly beloved , dearly beloved, dearly beloved,
I cant relate to you, I cant relate to you!
Dearest in memoriam - set phasers to stun
And grab yourself a neighbors skeleton to lean upon,
Did you know him in life - one filled with regret,
So soon we all forget - we ever met,

Do you know my name - sing a light refrain
For a man estranged -
I wont deny that Im inclined to isolate
Dearly beloved, dearly beloved, dearly beloved,
I cant relate to you, I cant relate to you!
I cant relate to you, I cant relate to you ,
