lyrics

When you told me you didn’t want to see me
You wanted the monastery I laughed
Right aloud I hope you didn’t mind me
I use humor always
Now I see

There is something holy inside me
I take em to the clergy
I drive em to church
That’s all right with me
I’m going into chaplaincy
No one’s gonna stop me from the extreme

Oooooh I don't come to redeem
I am the extreme

When you told me you saw Jesus in me
I wondered if I should wash your feet
But you didn’t come to me
Not with a penny, not with a perfume, just with the breeze

And then you said you that didn’t want to marry me
And I laughed because I agreed
I said I didn’t know that was on the table
I’ve barely known you or the nunnery

Oooooh I don't come to redeem
I am the extreme

When you told me you’d wait forever if I wasn’t ready
I cried a stream
You said I won’t make no woman the answer
Before knowing the question in me

Oooooh I don't come to redeem
I am the extreme

Oooooh I don't come to redeem
I am the extreme

Oooooh I don't come to redeem
I am the extreme
