The Ultimatum
by Billy Sprague

I can't believe the things I do
I can't believe the things I say
If anyone could look inside me
They'd probably turn and walk away
You know what really frightens me
The enemy who stands between
The kind of man I am
And who I want to be

I got a monster living inside
Makes a cartoon out of Jekyll and Hyde
Can't make him go and he won't be denied

Somebody get my shotgun
Stand my pride against the wall
Read the ultimatum
Then blow him away

Somebody get my shotgun
Stand my pride against the wall
Read the ultimatum
Then blow him away

I can't imagine what I'd do
I can't imagine where I'd be
If the mighty love of Jesus
Hadn't come down and got a hold of me
In the inner tyranny
He is standing near to me
Between the man I am
And what I used to be

I got a monster living inside
Makes a cartoon out of Jekyll and Hyde
He's gotta go so he'd better decide

Somebody get my shotgun
Stand my pride against the wall
Read the ultimatum
Then blow him away

Somebody get my shotgun
Stand my pride against the wall
Read the ultimatum
Then blow him away

No, I tired of him coming back from the dead
Sneakin' around puttin' lies in my head
Another word and I'll fill him with lead

Somebody get my
Somebody get my shotgun
Stand my pride against the wall
Read the ultimatum
Then blow him away

Somebody get my shotgun
Stand my pride against the wall
Read the ultimatum
Then go blow him away
Blow him away

I can't imagine what I'd do
Can't imagine where I'd be
If the mighty love of Jesus
Hadn't come down and got a hold of me
