7. Children of Dog (6:45)
How many goals defined?
Children were all in line
We're all just children in front of God
Children in front of God

I haven't a goal in mind
How will these words define?
Now I'm only chillin' in front God
Chillin' in front of God

Here is the addict, with the stage lights overhead
And later, in the alley, it's your right, but you're wrong
But what did you think you would find?
The need was much more in your mind
(Chillin' in front of God, chillin' in front of God)

Later, in the morning
With the late night all but dead, oh God
Say, "Hey! What's your hurry?"
It's right, right, right, into your arms

I never thought you would mind
How does a soldier unwind?

Then one day, one day, one day your heart will tell you
One day, one way, one at a time

I haven't a goal in mind
How will these words define?
Now I'm only chillin' in front of God

Let all this die
Got it in the back door, start it up

Too late to see that all there is is double vision
Too late to be the honorium
Too late to see that all there is is double vision
Too late to feed the unbelievers

Too late to see that all there is is double vision
Too late to be the honorium

How many more do we write till we pass the door?
How many more, dear?

How many goals defined?
Children were all in line
We're all just children in front of God
Children in front of God

I haven't a goal in mind
How will these words define?
Now I'm only chillin' in front God
