lyrics
Can’t you hear it
It’s a verbal disease
That you’re spreading
Like subordinate sleaze
You’re too willing
To go fall on your knees now
Can’t you see it
In pomp and the flair
Robes of satin
Glass stained mysteries
All for those
so called
Powers that be now
Your finger’s the only one
I want to be wrapped around
It's a spell
It's a guilt
It's a hopeless pursuit
On your knees
For the preach
C’mon brain-wash me please
You’ll bow down
To the sound
Thoughtless
Yet profound
He’s up there
He don’t care
You know closed eyes can’t see
This ain't no
Ain't joking affair
Life’s no rehearsal
No prize for a prayer
I said to
the salesman with a cross now
I don’t need no finger of love
Pointing down
Nothing but hate
It’s too late
To refund your life
I gonna watch it burn down
In a cradle of my own making
Your finger’s the only one
I want to be wrapped around
It's a spell
It's a guilt
It's a hopeless pursuit
On your knees
For the preach
C’mon brain-wash me please
You’ll bow down
To the sound
Thoughtless
Yet profound
He’s up there
He don’t care
You know closed eyes can’t see
