作词 : Harper | |
Where once were men are now but sheep | |
-a fiction and far cry | |
From planet earth's proud animal | |
-who would be you and I. | |
Alas, our forebears drank the cup of poisoned alibi | |
And made excuses far and wide, | |
and made God in the sky. | |
This boogaloo's now round the world | |
-bad trips for everyone. | |
No more the man of paradise | |
or the Celt of Albion. | |
They queue like burning moths to spread the all-time vicious lie. | |
You christians destroyed our tribe | |
-I'll fight you till I die. | |
And you can cut me down for what I said | |
But goodness lives where God is dead. | |
The history of religion is the history of the State | |
Incestuous exploiters of a catalogue of hate. | |
The man of peace was over-run by armies of the "Lord" | |
Who signed their names to any war | |
and sang to praise the sword. | |
The mission heads for outer space | |
the voices ring and swell | |
With aeons of self-righteousness | |
the senseless echoes knell | |
The words get much more meaningless | |
-even plainer to tell | |
That those who would pronounce this God | |
are those who make this hell. | |
And you can cut me down for what I said | |
But goodness lives where God is dead. | |
LOVE IS THE great triumph over christianity. | |
She made a fool of silly priests. She mocked authority. | |
She filled her bed with happiness.She gripped his loins for joy | |
And felt ecstatic agonies and screamed the sweetest cry. | |
Her children are the legacy of failure to be chained | |
An everasting mutiny of flowers where it rained. | |
They rise out of oppression | |
They speak with one accord. | |
The fountains breath- the spirit lives- | |
The future rests assured. | |
And to say that God is dead presupposes that | |
he was at some time alive. | |
Ooooo what a young fool I am. |
