Dale's sorry if he woke you, Pastor
But he needs a sacrificial knife
He's gonna carve up his brother
And lay hands upon that wife
A voice told him to do it
Go out and kill the fatted calf
Take his brother's job down at the furnace
And cut her child by him in half

Open the church windows
Let the spirit cool your brow
The county paved the road with good intentions
But the devil's in the prayer house now

Sally's sorry if she woke you, Pastor
But she needs a pinch of salt
Last month her husband vanished
Heaven knows it's not her fault
No, her hip just didn't heal right
After he pushed her down the stairs
Everybody's clapping as she limps across the stage
To hoist her trophy at the fair

It's better than blue ribbons
She laughs and takes a bow
That mystery casserole sure smells nice
And the devil's in the prayer house now

I'm sorry if I woke you, Pastor
But I'm leaving this town behind
I borrowed the week's collection
Every cent that I could find
I'm rounding up the youth group honeys
I hotwired a shut-in's van
We're gonna crank the choir's greatest hits
And meet a special businessman

Roll down the windows
Let the spirit cool your brow
No, this highway doesn't lead anywhere good
And the devil's in the prayer house now
