Closer To God Lyrics - Television Personalities

It's the ballad of a Catholic boy 

Full of Catholic hopes and joys 

Genuflect and say your prayers 

Confess your sins and God will share 

Bastard Grammar School 

God fearing 

Discipline and saving beatings 

But no one knows where we're going to 

No one knows where we've been 

No one taught anything at school 

As a child made confirmation 

Choose your Saint 

Then choose your station 

Hurt the child 

Then shove it love 

It's just violence in a velvet glove 

Sunday, Church, 

Confess to Father, repent your sins 

Confess to Father 

Four Hail Mary's, be forgiven 

There's something inside, I'm driven 

Just when I thought I'd lost my way 

I'm feeling closer now 

I'm getting closer now 

Closer to God
