"Baptism"

My daddy wasn't much for God, taught me to be a skeptic
I wanted him to hold me but I wasn't antiseptic
No I'm a dirty boy + well I guess it freaked him out
When he took his life I blamed myself, it broke me down no doubt

Took me years to try again, seek out a man for me
My father left me prisoner, took half my life to set me free
Finally I met you but I could not let you in
Wasn't done, no, paying off my earthly maker's sin

With you I wanna start anew, I wanna be reborn
With you I go all weak inside, like Samson I am shorn
I'm usually a prude but man I'm hungry for your jism
Go ahead + make it rain, yeah give me your baptism
With you I wanna let it go, time to begin again
Learned to suffer wisdom's cost in the places I have been
I'm usually unreachable but you can fill the schism
Go ahead + make it rain, yeah give me your baptism

Down, down, down, take me down
Down, down, down, 'til I feel the ocean's ground

My mom is a believer, yeah, she helps me stay the course
But she expected mountains moved, I strained 'til I grew hoarse
Eventually she showed me how to keep my spirit stocked
She taught me not to give myself until I got wedlocked

It wasn't that I hated sex, oh no quite the contrary
But why give yourself to a hit-+-run who doesn't want to marry
Finally I met you but you didn't want to wait
Well now you see how long it takes to earn a lasting mate

It's time for you to dunk me because I have found my God
Discovered higher powers on the road that I have trod
I love myself, it's true I do, but alone it's not enough
That's why I am so hungry for your fertilizing stuff
