Lords Of The New Church

Here's the man whose voice speaks for everyone

And whose actions touch the lives of us all

He rose with energy and style

Shake my hand, kiss my child

Sway us all with your smile

He readily accepts acclaim

But soon forgets that he came

From the back streets like them

So we pray to the east

We pray to the west

And we see the gods of the new church

As they undertake their vow

Tell me who can save us now?

Save us from the lords of the new church

Don't say no

Here's the man some believe is a visionary

Here's the man who is driven by greed

He made a fortune overnight

In a deal that he knew

Was too good to be true

As he bends the rules of play

Becomes obsessed with the game

Has to go all the way

They feast and they fly

While we pay the real price

But what price do we place on life?
