New Religion |
| A dialogue between the ego and the alter ego |
| I’ve been now sauntering |
| Out and down the path sometime |
| Come on, it takes me nowhere, which I knew |
| Faces everywhere pulling grins and signs in things |
| Telling me not there, man, it’s no go Don’t go there boy |
| I need a reason |
| I can’t think without one now |
| Too much learning got to show |
| Call it treason |
| Maybe catch her, don’t know how |
| Too many things, too much to know |
| Bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the wind |
| Lady screaming, lady leave me out |
| 'Cause sometimes people stare |
| Coming down, electric chair |
| And steaming crowds they gather and they shout |
| Don’t know why this evil bothers me Take another chance boy, carry the fight, |
| you can take him if you’re fast |
| So why is he trying to follow me? |
| didn’t I say if you’re holding on you’d be laughing at the last |
| How many reasons do they need? |
| I get along fine with them friends of mine |
| but you have to make a choice |
| I might just believe this time |
| You’re singing out of tune but the beat’s in time |
| and it’s us who make the noise |
| I’m talking for free, I can’t stop myself, |
| It’s a new religion |
| I’ve something to see, I can’t help myself, |
| It’s a new religion |
| Okay, my reasoning might be clouded by the sun |
| But someone sees the departmental lie |
| You know this peacetime jabbing fist in stabbing knife |
| Only get one look before you die |
| Don’t know why this evil bothers me Take another chance boy, carry the fight, |
| you can take him if you’re fast |
| So why is he trying to follow me? |
| didn’t I say if you’re holding on you’d be laughing at the last |
| How many reasons do they need? |
| I get along fine with them friends of mine |
| but you have to make a choice |
| I might just believe this time |
| You’re singing out of tune but the beat’s in time |
| and it’s us who makes the noise |
| I’m talking for free, I can’t stop myself, |
| It’s a new religion |
| I’ve something to see, I can’t help myself, |
| It’s a new religion |
| Gotta take pay the saints 'n sinners |
| In regulation hats 'n scarves 'n things |
| Walking in formation down the lane, |
| They carry their cross, make a church bell ring |
| Army majors pull a mean cool truth, |
| There lying in a swimming pool |
| Searching for the undeniable truth that |
| A man is just a fool |
| Don’t know why this evil bothers me Take another chance boy, carry the fight, |
| you can take him if you’re fast |
| So why is he trying to follow me? |
| didn’t I say if you’re holding on you’d be laughing at the last |
| How many reasons do they need? |
| I get along fine with them friends of mine |
| but you have to make a choice |
| I might just believe this time |
| You’re singing out of tune but the beat’s in time |
| and it’s us who make the noise |
| I’m talking for free, I can’t stop myself, |
| It’s a new religion |
| I’ve something to see, I can’t help myself, |
| It’s a new religion |
| (repeat to fade) |
