Man of God |
Well the cowboy came from out of the west |
With his snakeskin boots and his bulletproof vest |
Gang of goons and his big war chest |
Fortunate son he was doubly blessed |
Corporate cronies and the chiefs of staff |
Bowing to the image of the golden calf |
Startin up wars in the name of god’s son |
Gonna blow us all the way to kingdom come |
Man of god, man of god |
That ain’t the teachings of a man of god |
Man of god, man of god |
That ain’t the preachings of a man of god |
Coalition of the fearcul and the judgemental |
Patricians, politicians, and the fundamentalistas |
You never have to tell them how the money’s spent |
You never have to tell them where their freedom went |
Homophobes in the high command |
Waitin for the rapture like it’s disneyland |
Hide all the bodies from out of view |
Channel all the treasure to the chosen few |
Man of god, man of god… |
If I could I surely would |
Stand on the rock where moses stood |
Look out people now we’re gonna get fleeced |
By a wolf masquerading as a man of peace |
Jesus said blessed are the meek |
Jesus said you gotta turn the other cheek |
Jesus said help the poor and the weak |
If he lived today he’d be a liberal freak |
All the money changers would be out on the street |
Weepin and wailin and gnashin their teeth |
Me I’m waitin on the reckoning day |
When the whole world gonna rise up and say |
Man of god, man of god… |
