Lyrics for New Religion
I've been now sauntering Out and down the path sometime Come on, it takes me nowhere, which I know Faces everywhere pulling grins and signs in things Telling me not there, man, it's no go I need a reason I can't think without one now Too much learning got to show Call it treason Maybe catch her, don't know how Too many things, too much to know I'll bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the wind Lady screaming, lady leave me out 'Cause sometimes people stare Sitting down, electric chair And steaming crowds they gather and they shout Don't know why (take another chance boy, carry the fight) This evil bothers me (you can take him if you're fast) So why is he trying (didn't I say if you're holding on) To follow me? (you'd be laughing at the last) How many reasons (I get along fine with them friends of mine) Do they need? (but you have to make a choice) I might just believe (you're singing out of tune but the beat's in time) This time (and it's us who makes the noise) I'm talking for free I can't stop myself It's a new religion I've something to see I can't help myself It's a new religion Okay, my reasoning might be clouded by the sun But someone sees the departmental lie You know this peacetime jabbing fist in stabbing knife Only get one look before you die Don't know why (take another chance boy, carry the fight) This evil bothers me (you can take him if you're fast) So why is he trying (didn't I say if you're holding on) To follow me? (you'd be laughing at the last) How many reasons (I get along fine with them friends of mine) Do they need? (but you have to make a choice) I might just believe (you're singing out of tune but the beat's in time) This time (and it's us who makes the noise) I'm talking for free I can't stop myself It's a new religion I've something to see I can't help myself It's a new religion Gotta take pay the saints 'n' sinners In regulation hats 'n' scarves 'n' things Walking in formation down the lane They carry their cross, make a church bell ring (hurry up now) Army majors pull a mean cool truth There lying in a swimming pool Searching for the undeniable truth that A man is just a fool Don't know why (take another chance boy, carry the fight) This evil bothers me (you can take him if you're fast) So why is he trying (didn't I say if you're holding on) To follow me? (you'd be laughing at the last) How many reasons (I get along fine with them friends of mine) Do they need? (but you have to make a choice) I might just believe (you're singing out of tune but the beat's in time) This time (and it's us who makes the noise) I'm talking for free I can't stop myself It's a new religion I've something to see I can't help myself It's a new religion I'm talking for free I can't stop myself It's a new religion I've something to see I can't help myself It's a new religion I'm talking for free I can't stop myself
