Lyrics for East Jesus Nowhere
And we will see how Godless a nation we have become Raise your hands now to testify Your confession will be crucified You're a sacrificial suicide Like a dog that's been sodomized, well (Step up!) All the white boys (Step down!) And the black girls (Step up!) You're the soldiers (Step down!) Of the new world Put your faith in a miracle And it's non-denominational Join the choir, we'll be singing In the church of wishful thinking A fire burns today Of blasphemy and genocide The sirens of decay Will infiltrate the faith fanatics Oh, bless me Lord for I have sinned It's been a lifetime since I last confessed I threw my crutches in the river of a shadow of doubt And I'll be dressed up in my Sunday best Say a prayer for the family Drop a coin for humanity Ain't this uniform so flattering? I never asked you a goddamn thing A fire burns today Of blasphemy and genocide The sirens of decay Will infiltrate the faith fanatics Don't test me Second-guess me Protest me, you will disappear I wanna know who's allowed to breed All the dogs who never learned to read Missionary politicians And the cops of the new religion A fire burns today Of blasphemy and genocide The sirens of decay Will infiltrate the inside Yeah!
