Lyrics
Modern Day Witch Hunt
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Right wing theocracy maintaining inequality
Have oragnized politically to uphold traditional hierarchies
Between rich and poor, black and white
Wanting homosexuals out of sight
And conventional marriage between woman and man
Increasing political pressure until abortion is banned
Because killing is bad but guns are good
For slaying docters just like Jesus would
Or arming Christian soliders for the next crusade
Killing all of the heathens that won't be saved
Protecting us from immigrants and perverted sexual deviants
A world of mindless Christians is what they want
Carrying out their modern day witch-hunt
Falwell, Robertson and Kennedy are defining immortality
They're bashing sexuality and cashing in on bigotry
Modern day witch-hunt
The Christian Reconstructionists are acting as the catalysts
Grooming young activists to become Christian fundamentalists
Convincing eith every medium that can lend a hand
That the youth should serve god's divine plan
So that "biblical law" can be set in place
And their bigoted morals must be embraced
That's the Christian coalition's resolution
To transform every home into god's institution
With a kitchen for women and a closet for gays
And a man in charge to make sure that's where they stay
And if they don't comply there's always domestic violence
To keep women subordinate, scared and silent
Making everything the way that god would want
Contributing to this modern day witch-hunt
Falwell, Robertson and Kennedy are defining immortality
They're bashing sexuality and cashing in on bigotry
Modern day witch-hunt
Demonizing feminism
Indoctrinated sexism
National chauvinism promotes authoritarianism
Empowered women threaten the Christian's plan
Of being an obedient dog and serving man
Like the gays, lesbaisn and transgendered
Roles that don't reflect Christian principal
Living your life by what the bible says
But your god is a myth and Christ is dead
Letting the bible do your thinking is so absurd
Because your malfunctioned god never wrote a word
Those who actually wrote the bible on your shelves
Were straight, bigoted men just like yourselves
Your word of god is just a front
That justifies this modern day witch-hunt
Your bigoted religion is what you trust
But your sick god doesn't govern us
