You're talkin' fast but you're preaching feast now [Verse 2] Bits and pieces I remember slightly It was a long time ago We had our hot and holy conversations And solve the problems of the drunken world Now a clerical collar chokes at your convictions You strangle slowly for the old addiction It's Heaven's army and you're so professional So listen closely to this closed confessional [Chorus] That's nice (That's nice) that's neat (That's neat) It's bitter and it's sweet Is it trick and treat?
