| They came like beasts who’d tasted blood
|
| First a few and then the flood
|
| Coursing over hill and dale
|
| Wet paw prints on their bloody trail
|
| Return the peace you took from me
|
| Give me back my community
|
| Show us the goodwill you were shown
|
| But leave us alone
|
| And restore the temple of Isis at Memphis
|
| Yeah, restore the temple of Isis at Memphis
|
| Their hunger like a worm inside them
|
| No sacred place could be denied them
|
| They who talk all day of beauty
|
| Call all the plain things dirty
|
| Melted holes in celluloid
|
| Give me back what you’ve destroyed
|
| You who come demanding proof
|
| Let your God rebuild this roof
|
| And restore the temple of Isis at Memphis
|
| Yeah, restore the temple of Isis at Memphis
|
| Make it whole again if you can
|
| Stand in the smoke and say some prayers
|
| Wave your hand
|
| And restore the temple of Isis at Memphis
|
| Restore the temple of Isis at Memphis |
