So, for Easter, I thought I would not write a song about anyone else's shortcomings, but a song about my own.

JESUS KICK MY ASS

By David Snyder

V1

Sometimes  I say some things 
I  can't believe 
And I’m rude as hell 
Wear it on my sleeve 
I go off half cocked 
And run my mouth  too much 
And my friends all leave and say 
I'm out of touch 

(Pre-Chorus)

Then I turn on some country radio 
And it tells me everything I need to know 

(Chorus)

I don't need a shrink 
I don’t need no therapy
And I don't need  to think
Any more about me 
And  I don't need to take
An anger management class 
No  I just need Jesus 
To kick my ass 
Yeah I say Jesus
Jesus kick my  ass

V2

I get tangled up in pride 
And start cuttin’ off my nose
Acting out of fear
And hurt the ones I love the most

(Pre-Chorus)

Then I turn on some country radio 
And it tells me everything I need to know 

(Chorus)

I don't need a shrink 
I don’t need no therapy
And I don't need  to think
Any more about me 
And  I don't need to take
An anger management class 
No  I just need Jesus 
To kick my ass 
Yeah I say Jesus
Jesus kick my  ass

(Bridge)

I'm tired  of walking
On this broken glass
So I surrender up this flesh
And the things I can’t get past 

(Chorus)

Oh, I don't need a shrink 
I don’t need no therapy
And I don't need to think
Any more about me 
And  I don't need to take
An anger management class 
No  I just need Jesus 
To kick my ass 
Yeah I say Jesus
Jesus kick my  ass
