Fair Weather FaithWaiting For The Punchline

Prentending to act so serene
On your so called submissive knees
shopping list of begging pleas
Adds to [bad word] 
As soon as the sun don't shine your way
And you're saving it all up that rainy day
It's a matter of time before you get down 'n' pray

Fair weather faith - protect me from the storm
Fair weather faith - gonna right all my wrongs
Fair weather faith - you know i'm doing alright
Fair weather faith - out of mind, out of sight

Well I wonder if the man upstairs
Will bother to lend an ear
If you took the time to share
Another one of your puppet prayers

I ain't talkin' 'bout the weather

WAITING FOR THE PUNCHLINE (2nd part of the song)

you might say hey, i lost my sense of humor
i'm quite surprised i didn't lose it sooner
why waste your breath on anything less
then talk so trivial
as a man who ran out of material
 [bad word] ]
why did the chicken go across the road
to get to the other side
i'm still waiting for the punchline
whoever said the grass always grows
greener on the other lied
i'm still waiting for the punchline

the good ol' days i was known to wear a smile
like all good things they've gone out of style
i will admit, usually a quick wit
i found bemusing
what used to be, no longer are amusing
 [bad word] ]

it's nothing that you said,
no nothing that you did
must have been a bad joke,
that's gone over my head
what me worry, another tragedy
the latter plus time, [bad word] 
why can't i get to the other side
