| Preachers cheating people everywhere I look.
|
| Bleaching white the pages of a bloodstained book.
|
| Two thousand years of dogmatised hypocrisy;
|
| So now I think it’s time we tried some new philosophy.
|
| I’m telling you!
|
| They teach of peace and love,
|
| yet stoke the sulphurous pyres of war.
|
| Pray kiss this seal and glove,
|
| that stroke drug-money, gun and whore.
|
| Pious liars have all deceived us;
|
| Bled the beggars — fed the choosers.
|
| Our prayers shall have been heeded,
|
| whence ye sinners swing like Judas.
|
| SWING!
|
| Christian, Pagan, Hindu, Muslim, Sikh & Jew;
|
| Just face these fundamental facts I preach at you.
|
| We’ve a duty to the future not to self-destruct;
|
| We better learn to live as one or else this planet’s fucked!
|
| I’m telling you!
|
| It suits the leader’s needs,
|
| when we fight amongst ourselves.
|
| For their sacrilegious greed,
|
| we’ll evoke such 'holy' hells.
|
| But just who’ll give a damn,
|
| for your countless hours of prayer,
|
| when we face the fall of man,
|
| witness our children in despair?
|
| SWING!
|
| Priests incant and Mullahs sing, |
| of Armageddons they would bring;
|
| Yet overlooked one vital thing,
|
| someday like Judas they could swing.
|
| Hearts and minds the hate infuses.
|
| None are winners — all now losers.
|
| Walk the path that Satan chooses,
|
| and in time you’ll swing like Judas!
|
| SWING! |
