Oh people - what have you done -
locked Him in His golden cage.
Made Him bend to your religion -
Him resurrected from the grave.
He is the god of nothing -
which is all that you can see.
You are the god of everything
Said, He's inside you and me.
So lean upon Him gently
and don't call on Him to save you
from your social graces
and the sins you wished waive.
The Jewish, Christian, Muslim -
is waiting to be free.
Each claiming just a part of Him -
And so, a part of me.
And the graven image Catholic -
with His plastic crucifix -
he's got him fixed -
confusing me as to who and where and why -
as to how he gets his kicks (gets his kicks).
Confessing to the endless sin -
the endless whining sounds.
You'll be praying 'til next Thursday to
all the gods that you can count.
