Man of God

The cowboy came frm out of the west
 With his snakeskin boots and his bulletproof vest
 Gang of goons and his big war chest
 Fortunate son he was doubly blessed
 Corporate cronies and the chiefs of staff
 Bowin' to the image of the golden calf
 Startin up wars in the name of god's son
 Gonna blow us all the way to kingdom come
 Man of god, man of god
 That ain't the teachings of a man of god
 Man of god, man of god
 That ain't the preachings of a man of god
 Coalition of the willing and the judgmental
 Patricians, politicians, and the fundamentalists
 You never have to tell them how the money's spent
 You never have to tell them where their freedom went
 Homophobes in the high command
 Waitin' for the rapture like it's disneyland
 Hide all the bodies from out of view
 Channel all the treasure to the chosen few
 Man of god, man of god
 That ain't the teachings of a man of god
 Man of god, man of god
 That ain't the preachings of a man of god
 If I could I surely would
 Stand on the rock where moses stood
 Look out people now we're gonna get fleeced
 By a wolf masquerading as a man of peace
 Jesus said blessed are the meek
 Jesus said you gotta turn the other cheek
 Jesus said help the poor and the weak
 If he lived today he'd be a liberal freak
 All the money changers would be out on the street
 Weepin and wailin and gnashin their teeth
 Me I'm waitin on the reckoning day
 When the whole world gonna rise up and say
 Man of god, man of god
 That ain't the teachings of a man of god
 Man of god, man of god
 That ain't the preachings of a man of god
 Man of god, man of god
 That ain't the teachings of a man of god
 Man of god, man of god
 That ain't the preachings of a man of god
