The sermon at the church on Hollywood Boulevard Is on Adam and the Fall of Man Now I know exactly what they mean I feel a lot like Adam myself these days Fallen to the ground in a '68 Ford Fallen from grace in the eyes of the Lord Now I think if I had to live outside the garden of paradise It might as well be spent looking in your eyes The lies might as well be your lies The thighs might as well be your thighs It might as well be with Eva It might as well be with you I wander the streets And I wonder if there's something I should do To prepare for the life to come Maybe I should fall to my knees and try to repent For the gifts that came and went I'm fallen to the ground in a devil disguise Fallen from grace in the angel's eyes Now I think if I had to live as one of god's fallen ones It might as well be spent lying in the sun With your lips telling me I'm the one Your fingers shooting me like a gun It might as well be with Eva It might as well be with Eva's such a lucky girl She don't have a care in the world She sets fire to the foot of her bed Leaves the righteous shaking their head I won't be attending the sermon at the church this Sunday On Adam and the Fall of Man I think I could deliver that message As god as any preacher in Hollywood I'm fallen to the ground in a fiery hole Fallen with the rest of my immortal soul Now I think if I gotta spend eternity outside Eden's gate It might as well be worth the wait So if you're the one buttering the bread on my plate Then to hell and back on roller skates It might as well be with Eva
