Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All my life, I was swinging for the fence
I was looking for the triple, never playing good defense
Gunnin' for the glitter, every hot and heavy hitter
She was never really there so I couldn't really get her
[Refrain]
Said factually I, I'm just a piece of it
Factually I, the very least of it
[Verse 2]
Piece of work, I was really quite a jerk
Keeping score is such a bore, a busy mind could go berserk
Oh, feast on this, I was fishing for a hook
So I took a little trip and I opened up the book
[PreChorus]
I said factually I, I'm just a piece of it
Factually I, the very least of it
Factually I, it's just a medicine
Make you wanna cry, why don't they let us in?
[Chorus]
Be my wife, I think you're right that we should mate
Tell your friends I've got a factory of faith
Late last night, I had a dream that it was great
Tell your friends I've got a factory of faith, I've got a factory of
[Verse 3]
Crack your whip, she's confessing from the hip
She was good at getting there but not as much for round-trip
Oh, all this time, I was searching for a dream
I was slippin' in and out of every other sex machine
[PreChorus]
I said factually I, I'm just a piece of it
Factually I, the very least of it
Factually I, it's just a medicine
Makes you wanna cry, why don't they let us in?
[Chorus]
Be my wife, I think you're right that we should mate
Tell your friends I've got a factory of faith
Late last night, I had a dream that it was great
Tell your friends I've got a factory of faith, I've got a factory of
[Chorus]
Be my wife, I think you're right that we should mate
And tell your friends I've got a factory of faith
Late last night, I had a dream that it was great
Tell your friends I've got a factory of faith, I've got a factory of
[Outro]
Faith and love
Lo-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
