Take Me to Church |
My lover’s got humour |
She’s the giggle at a funeral |
Knows everybody’s disapproval |
I should’ve worshipped her sooner |
If the Heavens ever did speak |
She is the last true mouthpiece |
Every Sunday’s getting more bleak |
A fresh poison each week |
'We were born sick,' you heard them say it |
My church offers no absolutes |
She tells me 'worship in the bedroom' |
The only heaven I’ll be sent to |
Is when I’m alone with you |
I was born sick, but I love it |
Command me to be well |
Amen. |
Amen. |
Amen |
Take me to church |
I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies |
I’ll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife |
Offer me that deathless death |
Good God, let me give you my life |
Take me to church |
I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies |
I’ll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife |
Offer me that deathless death |
Good God, let me give you my life |
If I’m a pagan of the good times |
My lover’s the sunlight |
To keep the Goddess on my side |
She demands a sacrifice |
To drain the whole sea |
Get something shiny |
Something meaty for the main course |
That’s a fine looking high horse |
What you got in the stable? |
We’ve a lot of starving faithful |
That looks tasty |
That looks plenty |
This is hungry work |
Take me to church |
I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies |
I’ll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife |
Offer me my deathless death |
Good God, let me give you my life |
Take me to church |
I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies |
I’ll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife |
Offer me my deathless death |
Good God, let me give you my life |
No masters or kings when the ritual begins |
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin |
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene |
Only then I am human |
Only then I am clean |
Amen. |
Amen. |
Amen |
Take me to church |
I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies |
I’ll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife |
Offer me that deathless death |
Good God, let me give you my life |
Take me to church |
I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies |
I’ll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife |
Offer me that deathless death |
Good God, let me give you my life |
