| Watching them come and go
|
| The Templars and the Saracens
|
| They’re travelling in the holy land
|
| Opening telegrams, whoa
|
| Torture comes and torture goes
|
| Knights who’d give you anything
|
| They bear the cross of Coeur de Leon
|
| Salvation for the mirror blind, whoa
|
| But if you pray, all your sins are hooked upon the sky
|
| Pray and the heathen’s lie will disappear
|
| Prayers they hide the saddest view
|
| Believing the strangest things, loving the alien
|
| And your prayers they break the skies in two
|
| Believing the strangest things, loving the alien
|
| Thinking of a different time
|
| Palestine a modern problem
|
| Bounty and your wealth in land
|
| Terror in a best laid plan, whoa
|
| Watching them come and go
|
| Tomorrows and the yesterdays
|
| Christians and the unbelievers
|
| Hanging by the cross and nail
|
| But if you pray, all your sins are hooked upon the sky
|
| Pray and the heathen’s lie will disappear
|
| Prayers they hide the saddest view
|
| Believing the strangest things, loving the alien
|
| And your prayers they break the skies in two
|
| Believing the strangest things, loving the alien
|
| You pray till the break of dawn
|
| Believing the strangest things, loving the alien
|
| And you’ll believe you’re loving the alien
|
| Believing the strangest things, loving the alien |
