Em-G-Em-D-Em-- x8 D-A
Raise your hands now to testify
Your confessions will be crucified
You're a sacrificial suicide
Like a dog that's been sodomized
tand up!] all the white boys
Sit down!] all the black girls
You're the soldiers
of the new world
Put your faith in a miracle
And it's non-denominational
Join the choir we will be singing
In the church of wishful thinking
A fire burns today
Of blasphemy and genocide
The sirens of decay
Will infiltrate the faith fanatics
Em-G-Em-D-Em-- x4 D-A

Oh bless me lord for I have sinned
It's been a lifetime since I last confessed
I threw my crutches in "the river
Of a shadow of doubt"
pause
And I'll be dressed in my Sunday best
Say a prayer for the family
Drop a coin for humanity
Ain't this uniform so flattering?
I never asked you a god damned thing

Protest me
I want to know who's allowed to breed
All the dogs who never learn to read
Missionary politicians
And the cops of a new religion
