I'm drowning in your lake of compulsion
And you say, babe, don't choke on emotion
God had said to me, you can go anywhere
Just not to that one area over there
Well life took me there on its own
And now I see God laughing on his throne
I'm drowning in His lake of compulsion
And you say, babe, don't lean on emotion
God said to me, if you go there you'll be dammed
And for you there will be a great curse at hand
You see, I listened to Him and didn't aproach
But life threw me into the pit like a roach
I'm drowning in your lake of compulsion
And you say, babe, don't live on emotion
But God has different plans for me in time
Now what i'm stuck on is a compulsive dime
