Cold Comfort Lyrics

We all got together when we heard the bad news
Came all this way just to help with your blues
We're wise and we're righteous, we know what to say
And it's obvious you're someone who's been losing his way

Now we've heard you complain, and it's clear you don't know
There's a spiritual law that says you reap what you sow
Now grief is your harvest and there's nowhere to run
So why don't you confess to all the evil you've done?

We'll give you cold comfort tho' we say we're your friends
We don't know what you've done but still we're sure that you've sinned
We'll give you cold comfort ‘cause we've made up our minds
And when you know that you're right there ain't no need to be kind

(Chorus) Even if you're ignorant of what you did wrong
We can pile on some guilt - yes, we can help you along
If death, loss, and sickness still have not made a dent
We'll beat you with our words until you fin'lly repent

(Repeat chorus)
We'll give you cold comfort tho' we say we're your friends
You've been tried and convicted and we know that you've sinned
We'll give you cold comfort ‘cause we've made up our minds
And when you know that you're right there ain't no need to be kind

We all got together when we heard the bad news
Came all of this way just to help with your blues
We're wise and we're righteous and we know what to say
It's obvious you're someone who's been losin' his way
