Hymns For The Heathen |
| Night has draped its cape of stars |
| Over our small town |
| From the campus to the tavern |
| To the chapel and infirmary |
| We’ve seen their dreams |
| We’ve found the guilt |
| The fables, and folly |
| Of residents residing in… |
| 14 hymns for the heathen |
| First hymn, the son of God complex |
| Second hymn, the prodigal damsel |
| Third hymn, the tree stump of knowledge |
| Choking on Adam’s apple |
| This odd lot under the cross |
| This broken promised land |
| Of dreamers and schemers |
| And preachers and predators |
| They shall not want |
| What they’ve got coming to them |
| Whether innocent or insolent |
| 14 hymns for the heathen |
| Fourth hymn, the passion of the Chaplain |
| Fifth hymn, the brute kiss of Judas |
| Sixth hymn, Sodom falls to ashes |
| Seventh hymn, the church of doubting Thomas |
| Eighth hymn, the Horses of the Apocalypse |
| Ninth hymn, immaculate exception |
| Tenth hymn, the demons of Mary Magdalene |
| I am a chapel, this the prayer book, these are the parables |
| God forgive us, this is our business, absolving sins of all these heathens |
| Eleventh hymn, the Bible Belt tightens |
| Twelfth hymn, a leacherous Shepard |
| Thirteenth hymn, hiding in confession |
| Fourteenth hymn, an afterword |
| Rocking chairs of disenchantment |
| Green grass of envy and malice |
| Our salad days, living in Happy Hollow |
