[Verse 1]
Good morning, Reverend Posey
Gee, you haven't changed a bit
Our town is, oh, so peaceful and complete
Myself, I just got fired
And my wife expects our fifth in one more week

[Chorus]
Good morning
Good morning

[Verse 2]
Good morning, Reverend Posey
The world is looking rosy
With battlefields abroad and some at home
Are collection plates of silver or of chrome?

[Verse 3]
Good morning, Reverend Posey
Gee, you sure preached one today
You touched a point to me that's been redeemed
Your voice comes out so pure
But somehow I'm not so sure
That the word was much the same last year

[Chorus]
Good morning
Good morning
