Founding fathers and mothers left us a mandate |
|
We've got to separate the church and the state |
|
So get your head straight before it's too late |
|
And you drop it in the plate, you must appreciate |
|
Jesus and money make a man speak in tongues |
|
Scream out his lungs, roll in the dung |
|
And when the song is sung, he moves up another rung |
|
And the deaf and the dumb are the ones who get stung |
|
Here comes the sex police, they're at your bedroom door |
|
Movin' in next door, searchin' from floor to floor |
|
You know what they're lookin' for |
|
Someone's always keepin' score every time you dip the oar |
|
Love isn't fun no more |
|
Fascist christ, come to the rescue |
|
Gimme that old time religion, here it comes |
|
Let's get fundamental about this strange philosophy |
|
In which god and man are enemies |
|
In which there is no serenity unless you happen to believe |
|
Precisely what they want you to believe, and no diversity |
|
Come join the army and learn the noises |
|
That drown out the others' voices and please the devil |
|
Who rejoices when mankind has no choices |
|
And power exploits us, and peace avoids us |
|
Guess who to the rescue on a holy mission |
|
To uphold the tradition of the |
|
Spanish Inquisition |
|
And preempt your decision by forcing your confession |
|
Now let that be a lesson |
|
Who do you think you're messin' with? |
|
Somebody took our god away |
