Jonestown

Sweat's falling from my brow
There's still work to do
Man came and took the others
I ask myself: Why bother?
I guess they're dead by now
The traitors left our town
I hear my reverend call
He knows just how we'll fall
Our town has been decayed
Don't be this way
Drink and lay
We should pray
These words will clear my mind
I had to kill a child
You're worse than satan himself!
I miss those who fled
Our town has been decayed
Don't be this way
Drink and lay
Yet I don't want to live today
Still don't want to die this way
Die this way
Jimmy!
You gave us the land and the rice and God's love
Then decided whose sons would you like to fuck
Now people are lining in front of your word
What? Is this what we should tell the whole world
Gimme jimmy. Gimme jimmy. Jimmy!
Now jungle's sun hears the pain of your lambs
I thought you were our brother that we never had
If there's a God anywhere in this damn forest
Hey save me poor sinner from death's caress
Yet I don't want to live today
Still don't want to die this way
Yet you all are not afraid
I still don't want to die this way
