Do You Believe in Religion? - Nelson

Desert messiah ain’t nothing new — we all know his kind

Another self-appointed prophet with world domination

On his puny mind

Whispered scenes behind closed doors

How does one make the people think

His greed’s worth dying for?

Hey, let’s start a holy war!!!

Do you believe in religion?

I believe it’s your decision

Do you think it makes a difference?

Is it just some man-made vision?

Do you believe in religion?

I believe it’s your decision

Do you think it makes a difference?

Do you really care any way?

Midnight preacher calls me a sinner

And maybe he’s right

He said he’s just used the hot line

And God’s got a message for me

He says

He condemns my situation if I wanna find salvation

It’s time to phone in my donation as a vow of faith

He tells me that the church has got an image to protect

And god wants me to give — give till it hurts

Stayed me hand — it’s just as well

They caught him using God’s tax-free cash

To feed the kitty in some cheap motel

And now he’s going to hell
