Mr cosby invited me to Sunday breakfast
Hotcakes, eggs, and cereal with no sugar
Barely was I thru when he probed into
My religious upbringing and beliefs
He invited me to Sunday school,
Shaved me and we drove down
Met the pastor, and his wife
And his three daughters
The eldest daughter
Was the prettiest no doubt
I behaved quite well for an
Unbeliever
For an unbeliever
I behaved quite well

This was the first time I
Had been to church in many a year
But my old training hadn’t been for in vain
There wasn’t many folks there
There was more in jail last night
But I read the sermon on the mount
These folks believe that
The world’s about to end
The pastor and his wife
And his three daughters
The eldest daughter
Was the prettiest no doubt
And I behaved quite well for an
Unbeliever
For an unbeliever
I behaved quite well

Signs of the times, signs of the times
Coinciding with the book of revelations
Signs of the times, signs of the times
I will lift mine eyes up to the hills

We prayed for a little boy of
One of the women
He had broken his arm and she feared it would be stiff
Also for a lady who had heard us singing
And wanted us to pray
For her husband who was drunk
The reverend gave me
The book of john to carry
As I made my way on my travels
His eldest daughter
Was the prettiest no doubt
I behaved quite well for an
Unbeliever
For an unbeliever
I behaved quite well

Signs of the times, signs of the times
Coinciding with the book of revelations
Signs of the times, signs of the times
I will lift mine eyes up to the hills
