Easter Sunday

he came in from off the road

and found his wife in bed

with the neighborhood paper boy,

a twelve year old named fred

as he sat out on the porchswing,

sobbin, askin "why?"

she pissed on his left combat boot

and kissed the dog goodbye

(chorus)

he couldnt take the tradgedy,

his broken heart, they say,

another romance ends in pain

the sunny skies turn grey,

justifiable homicide

on easter sunday

(twangy solo)

she burned down his gramma

and stole his cheverolet

he looked up to the heavens

and said "god, yer gonna pay"

"i've spent my life a good man

but i wont take your shit

this is one religious holiday

you never will forget

(chorus)

(twangy solo)

as the town folk sat in church

givin praises to the lord

he wired up his tanker truck

with 50 pounds of c-4

he hit the church at one hundred ten

they saw the flames three states away

and jesus wept a tear or two

on easter sunday

(chorus)

he couldnt stand the tradgedy

his broken heart, they say

another romance ends in pain

the sunny skies turn grey

a giant flaming ball of doom

on easter sunday

(excessively twangy solo, depressing sobs)
