Lyrics for Blasphemous Rumours - Live at Rose Bowl, Pasadena, CA - June 18, 1988

Girl of 16, whole life ahead of her Slashed her wrists bored with life Didn't succeed, thank the Lord For small mercies Fighting back the tears, mother reads the note again 16 candles burn in her mind She takes the blame, it's always the same She goes down on her knees and prays I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours But I think that God's got a sick sense of humour And when I die, I expect to find him laughing (hey) I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours But I think that God's got a sick sense of humour And when I die, I expect to find him laughing Girl of 18 fell in love with everything Found new life in Jesus Christ Hit by a car, ended up on a life support machine Summer's day as she passed away Birds were singing in the summer sky Then came the rain and once again A tear fell from her mother's eye I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours But I think that God's got a sick sense of humour And when I die, I expect to find him laughing I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours But I think that God's got a sick sense of humour And when I die, I expect to find him laughing I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours But I think that God's got a sick sense of humour And when I die, I expect to find him laughing I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours But I think that God's got a sick sense of humour And when I die, I expect to find him laughing Yeah Thank you
