My lovers got humour
Shes the giggle
at a funeral
Knows everybodys
disapproval
I shouldve worshiped
her sooner
If the heavens
ever did speak
Shes the last
true mouthpiece
Every Sundays
getting more bleak
A fresh poison
each week
We were born sick
you heard them say it
My Church offers
no absolutes
She tells me
Worship in the bedroom
The only heaven
Ill be sent to
Is when Im alone
with you
I was born sick
But I love it
Command me to be well
Amen Amen Amen Amen
(Chorus 2x)
Take me to church
Ill worship like
a dog at the shrine
of your lies
Ill tell you my sins
and you can
sharpen your knife
Offer me that
deathless death
Good God let me
give you my life
If Im a pagan of
the good times
My lovers the sunlight
To keep the Goddess
on my side
She demands a sacrifice
Drain the whole sea
Get something shiny
Something meaty for
the main course
Thats a fine looking
high horse
What you got
in the stable
Weve a lot of
starving faithful
That looks tasty
That looks plenty
This is hungry work
(Chorus 2x)
Take me to church
Ill worship like a dog
at the shrine of your lies
Ill tell you my sins
so you can sharpen
your knife
Offer me my
deathless death
Good God let me
give you my life
No Masters or Kings
When the Ritual begins
There is no sweeter
innocence than
our gentle sin
In the madness and
soil of that
sad earthly scene
Only then I am Human
Only then I am Clean
Amen Amen Amen Amen
(Chorus 2x)
Take me to church
Ill worship like
a dog at the shrine
of your lies
Ill tell you my sins
and you can sharpen
your knife
Offer me that
deathless death
Good God let me
give you my life
