lyrics

Ever since you found religion
There's a devil in our bed
You know I'd go along with your salvation
But I ain't so easily lead

The world will be enough for me
Until I get to leave
But I ain't going nowhere
Even you can plainly see

Plenty of perfume, plenty of soap
Plenty of room, plenty of rope
Plenty of perfume

I apologise if your parents don't
Accept the pain I've lived with
What can be done with people like that
Don't even know they're blessed

I know they'd rather
People like me
Just shut up
And clean up their mess

With plenty of perfume, plenty of soap
Threaten you with doom
Dangle you false hope
And plenty of perfume

Guilt merchants on the phone
Guilt merchants at the door
Guilt merchants in the mail
Guilt merchants on the street
