Won't somebody please come up with something   'Cause Jesus just don't seem to be impartially working   And all of the rest are really down in the ratings   While everyone is right here waiting      Out in the cold   Like a bundle of coal   Little packets of darkness   Wanting to glow   Well there's nobody home   And there's a wreck in the yard   And maybe they're coming back   If we wish really hard   If we wish real hard, now      Won't somebody please come up with something   'Cause Jesus just don't seem to be impartially working   And all of the rest are really down in the ratings   But everyone is gonna keep on waiting      Waiting for peace   At the end of our streets   Back behind our apartments   In our passenger seats   Just a moment of prayers   Of all of the ways   The despair and oblivion   Of our precarious race   It's ours to face now      Won't somebody please come up with something   'Cause Jesus just don't seem to be impartially workin'   And all of the rest are really down in the ratings   But everyone is still right here waiting      Now I know nothing lasts forever   So we might as well wish for a goddamn fix   Of this toxic change in weather      Won't somebody please come up with something   'Cause Jesus just don't seem to be impartially workin'   And all of the others can barely stay in the runnin'   But everyone is gonna keep on waiting      Won't somebody please come up with something   Won't somebody please come up with something   Won't somebody please come up with something   Won't somebody please come up with something
