Turn up your hearing aid

In case you haven't noticed, I'm updating the blog every Thursday now, hopefully with some video as well as creative wordigy. So check in each Thursday for something new.
This week, here's a song from my last show. Try to guess who it's written about!

Intro chords Dm, Dm7, Dm, Dm7

Dm
You say you bounce all your decisions off God
Yet the results strike everybody as odd
Gm
You say the lord chose you
Am..............................Dm
And you couldn’t be prouder
But all these things the big guy tells you to do
Don’t make much sense so I think that you need to
Gm
Either turn up your hearing aid
Am..................................Dm
Or Jesus needs to talk louder
Gm
You need to turn up your hearing aid
Am...................................Dm
Or Jesus needs to talk louder

Dm,Dm7,Dm, Dm7 etc..
Dm
I think it’s strange that the advice that God’s giving
Ends up with multitudes no longer living
..............Gm
Yet you stand by your plan
Am...............................Dm
And you couldn’t be stouter
Invasions, shock and awe and troop increases
Jesus said “peace” dickhead, not “left in pieces”
Gm
Either turn up your hearing aid
Am..................................Dm
Or Jesus needs to talk louder

BridgeGm
He blessed the peacemakers and blessed the meek
Dm
Gave unto Caesar, turned the other cheek
Gm
Of loving all mankind he’d boldly speak
A
Did you miss Sunday school that fuckin’ week?

Dm
He said to heal the sick and help the poor
Not send them off to fight a senseless war
Gm...........................................Am
And now I think he’s tellin’ you
....................Dm
To take a powder
Listen more closely and you’ll hear God saying
"Try a little more thinking and a little less praying"
Gm
Turn up your hearing aid
Am...................................Dm
Or Jesus needs to talk louder
Gm
You need to turn up your hearing aid
Am.....................................Dm
Or Jesus needs to talk louder


Dm, Dm7, Dm, Dm7 to end....
