Album: ALTERNATIVE MAN | Song lyrics to: SACK RELIGIOUS
Intro: -- [Hit the sack!]
Verse 1
If I mention my Friend Jesus,
Do you turn to walk away?
Am I stereotyped as Elvis?
Am I the bad guy in a play?
Well, I too have watched the flicks
And I too have felt the fear
Of the politics & lunatics
Messing up what I hold dear,
& I say …
Chorus 1
Sack religious prejudice!
Sack religious pride!
It was sacrilegious bigots
Who committed Deicide!
Chorus 2
Sack religious hatred!
Sack religious fraud!
Like we can't see that they're naked,
Like they could make a fool of God.
So sacrilegious!
Sacrilegious!
Verse 2
If you're a rebel, you're my brother.
Let's tell it like it is!
The Spirit they can't smother
With champagne that's lost its fizz.
Strong wine for my water;
I'm drinking up another round.
Their old sack is such a rotter.
Let's take 'em on pound for pound
And I say …
Chorus 3
Sack religious system!
Sack religious wars!
Her tricks, you just can't list 'em
'Cause she's queen of all the...!
Chorus 4
Sack religious Kaisers!
Sack religious rules!
Professing to be wiser
They've become religious fools!
So Sacrilegious!
Sacrilegious!
Interlude: D
Chorus 5
Smack religious fable!
Smack religious lies!
Words meant to keep us stable
They'll use to terrorize!
Open your eyes! Open your eyes!
Hit the sack!
