I Don’t Have To Pray

by Duncan Jones

Recently it seems that I’ve been doin’ worse

Havin’ trouble just tryin’ to get out of bed

Well I’m doin’ what I can to shake this wicked curse

But it even hurts when I try to shake my head

Turns out these high speed crashes ain’t so cool

And I’m startin’ think the game's a bit unfair

Every year the show is gettin’ rougher

But I’m not gettin’ any tougher

No I think that I’m just gettin’ used to bein’ scared

So I’m out here waitin’ on the noose

‘Til somebody goes and turns me loose

And just like that the fear all fades away

It seems they’re always gettin’ bigger

It’s alright though, I’m still quicker

And I thank God that I don’t have to pray

Sometimes I can barely walk

So I give myself a talk

And remind myself somehow that this is fun

You know I couldn’t live without it

So now here’s a song about it

Well I don’t care to walk, no, not when I can run ...

Recently it seems that I’ve been doin’ worse

Havin’ trouble just tryin’ to get out of bed

I’m doin’ what I can to shake this wicked curse

But it even hurts when I try to shake my head
