Jesus Collects
Mussolini Headkick - Themes for Violent Retribution
I kneel and pray — “you start today”
So I was told — but your book is so old
I hear him teaching — “follow preaching”
But I… well I can only frown
He's got me right where he wants me
Through sightless eyes I saw his lies
Your god takes it all away
Jesus collects all you've got
Jesus collects all you've got
Jesus collects… everything
“eat your food up — it's from God's earth”
“Go stand in line now” and eat the dirt up
They preached in one tongue
These pictures of perfection — these statues of hypocrisy
They spoke of virtue — of the unspoken word
Don't question anything — your questions won't be heard
Chained to an altar of a god we never knew
Forced to confession for things we didn't do
Jesus collects all you've got
Jesus collects all you've got
Jesus collects all you've got
