Public Image Limited Religion lyrics

Stained glass windows
Keep the cold outside
While the hypocrites
Hide inside

With the lies of statues
In their minds
Where the Christian religion
Made them blind

Where they hide
And pray to the God
Of a bitch spelled backwards
Is dog

Not for one race
One creed, one world
But for money
Effective, absurd

Do you pray to the Holy Ghost
When you suck your host?
Do you read who's dead
In the Irish Post?

Do you give away

The cash you can't afford?
On bended knees
And pray to Lord

Fat pig priest
Sanctimonious smiles
He takes the money
You take the lies

This is religion and Jesus Christ
This is religion cheaply priced
This is bibles full of libel
This is sin in eternal hymn

This is what they've done
This is your religion
The apostles were eleven
Now there's a sod in Heaven

This is religion
There's a liar on the altar
The sermon never falter
This is religion, your religion
