Laura Lyrics

Laura I adore her

But I implore you

Please don't tell

Father O'Reily

Would crucify me

Should he ever see inside me

So please don't tell

Evidently she's over twenty or so I'm told

In the confessional - I try and act professional

My time with her's like gold and I'm getting old

I think of her for hours

Especially when I'm in the showers

She robs me of my powers

But please don't tell

Another thing I should mention

As I struggle for redemption

She relieves me of my tension

So please don't tell

Coincidentally her father drives a Bentley

He's a stalwart of the church

From what he's told me he's no right to scold me

He's done much worse and it was in a hearse

It's a brutal kind of life

When you're not allowed a wife

And so I balance on a knife

So please don't tell

Cause I've taken all my vows

My body belongs to the good lord now

This guilt is crushing me and how

So please don't tell

Laura I adore her

But I implore you

Please don't tell

Father O'Reily

Would crucify me

Should he ever see inside me

So please don't tell
