Bad Religion
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.
Thou who wouldst make us devils, thou shalt not poison me
The world hath been persuaded to believe thy heresy
I spit in the eye of satan, and I will spit in thine
The devils that surround thee, liveth only in thine eye
Bad religion, bad religion
I need no gods or devils, I need no pagan rights
Bad religion, bad religion
I need no burning crosses to illuminate my nights
Hey! Hey!
You hear me now, you hear me now
Hey! Hey
For thou art Judas, the mark of cain be on thy brow
Evangelistic nazis, you cannot frighten me
The name you take in vain shall judge you for eternity
I spit in the eye of satan, spit right in your eye too
You are the spooks you're chasing, you know not what you do
Bad religion, bad religion
I know you lie, I know you lie
Bad religion, bad religion
Thieves and liars, cross my heart I hope you die
Hey! Hey!
Remember me, remember me
Hey! Hey!
If there be justice, burning hell awaits for me
If there be such a being, then thou art anti-Christ
Turn men against their children, turn beauty into vice
I say thy God shall smite thee, he will perceive thy lust
His wrath shall fall upon thee, thou that betray his thrust
Bad religion, bad religion
I say that thou art liars, thy souls shall not be saved
Bad religion, bad religion
Here are the days of thunder, the days that thou hast made
Hey, hey!
Base seducers, I see thy greed
Hey, hey!
I am more fit for glory, than any ten of thee
Bad religion
