House of the Holy

from The Butcher's Delight by Junkyard Lipstick

lyrics

Thou shall not judge. Thou shall not steal.
But you hide your trespasses and you are not the real deal.
At sunday massacre let’s go and read the book of bias.
We’ll sing our worship songs to our holy lord of lies.

You say “an eye for an eye” but we all know that’s a lie.

Chorus:
it’s the house of the holy a home to the hypocrites.
They’re praising a god that they’re not even sure exists.
It’s a mass masquerade a gathering of deceit.
Acceptance for no one, but you’re allowed to be a cheat.
Welcome to the house of the holy.

Commit adultery and abuse his name in vain.
But at tomorrow’s service wash your dirty sins down the drain.
Coveting your neighbour as they sit down in the church.
Frowning on those who are “strange”
although you were a sinner since your birth.

Could you do unto others what you’d want done unto you?

(chorus)

You praise your plasma.
Your luxury car and home.
Devoted to possessions.
Got no god but your own.
Free in the name of his son.
There’s only one almighty.
But you will kill for your own god.
Create a war and follow blindly.

(chorus)
