Religion II lyrics

Song : Religion II
 


Stained glass windows keep the cold
outside
While the hypocrites hide
inside
With the lies of statues in their
minds
Where the Christian religion made them
blind
Where they hide
And prey to the God
of a bitch spelled backwards is dog
Not for
one race, one creed, one world
But for
money
Effective
Absurd

This is
religion
There’s a liar on the
altar
The sermon never falter
This is
religion

Do you pray to the Holy Ghost
when you suck your host
Do you read
who’s dead in the Irish Post
Do you give
away the cash you can’t afford
On bended
knees and pray to lord
Fat pig
priest
Sanctimonious smiles
He takes the
money
You take the lies

This is
religion
A liar on the altar
Sermon never
falter
This is religion

This is
religion and Jesus Christ
This is religion
cheaply priced
This is bibles full of
libel
This is sin in eternal hymn
This is
what they’ve done
This is your
religion
The apostles were eleven
Now
there’s a sod in Heaven

This is
religion
Liar on the altar
The sermon never
falter
This is religion

This is
religion
This is religion
This is
religion
This is religion

This is
religion
A liar on the altar
A sermon never
falter
This is religion

This is
religion
Your religion
And it’s all
falling to bits gloriously
This is religion
