Lyrics Do You Believe in Religion? - Nelson

Do You Believe in Religion?

Desert messiah ain’t nothing new — we all know his kind
Another self-appointed prophet with world domination
On his puny mind
Whispered scenes behind closed doors
How does one make the people think
His greed’s worth dying for?
Hey, let’s start a holy war!!!
Do you believe in religion?
I believe it’s your decision
Do you think it makes a difference?
Is it just some man-made vision?
Do you believe in religion?
I believe it’s your decision
Do you think it makes a difference?
Do you really care any way?
Midnight preacher calls me a sinner
And maybe he’s right
He said he’s just used the hot line
And God’s got a message for me
He says
He condemns my situation if I wanna find salvation
It’s time to phone in my donation as a vow of faith
He tells me that the church has got an image to protect
And god wants me to give — give till it hurts
Stayed me hand — it’s just as well
They caught him using God’s tax-free cash
To feed the kitty in some cheap motel
And now he’s going to hell
