Ten Commandments |
Down comes Moses with the Ten Commandments |
Hewn on a tablet, just the bitterest pill |
Breaks up the party in the valley below |
Says obey my orders and you’re doing God’s will |
And disciples of Jesus, lost and forgotten |
When the brand new faith isn’t doing so well |
Write the Book of Revelation to terrify the people |
Join our religion or you’re heading for hell |
Ch: I will bow to the earth, bow to the sea |
Bow to the love between you and me |
Bow to the sun, bow to the land |
But never to a god made in the image of man |
Here comes Mohammed, back from the desert |
Another male prophet with the word of the Lord |
Shut off the women, lock them in darkness |
Kill all opponents in a holy war |
Here is murder, here is oppression |
Here is the order that the Church demands |
Burn three million women, call them witches and heretics |
Then change the tune when the fashion demands |
How they run to you now, how they grovel to you now |
I think they’re mad |
How they subjugate their pride as if it’s a sin to be alive |
I think that’s sad |
Down with Moses and his Ten Commandments |
Deader than deadest of the Dead Sea Scrolls |
Back to the desert with Jesus and Mohammed |
Kick out the prophets and save our souls |
