Lyrics
When I was a kid I used to buy and sell gravity I knew how to fly, and I would teach you for a fee Broke every window in my hotel heart When I was only five years old but twelve years scarred And I'd hear the same voice echo in my mind It'd say, "Son, you've got an angel." That'd chase the devil at night When I was a kid my grandfather was a preacher He'd talk about God, he was something like a teacher He said, "God only helps those who learn to help thеmselves" He was a million milеs from a million dollars But you could never spend his wealth I took a little faith, and put it in a parking lot I drove to a strange town full of "have" and "have nones" And as I walked through that story-book life I've been looking for an angel who'd chase the devil at night When I was a kid my grandfather was a preacher He’d talk about love, he was something like a teacher He said, “God only helps those who learn to help themselves” He was a million miles from a million dollars But you could never spend his wealth Wave, put your hands up and hands down Wave, put your hands up and hands down Wave, put your hands up and hands down When I was a kid my grandfather was a preacher He’d talk about life, he was something like a teacher He said, “God only helps those who learn to help themselves” He was a million miles from a million dollars But you could never spend his wealth He was a million miles from a million dollars But you could never spend his wealth
