Lyrics
The Bitter Suite IV and V: The Congregation and The Sermon In The Silt
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.
They come in crowds to hear him speak
And he will greet them in a smile that sticks like vaseline
So do your best to keep your distance, in this instance
You're a stranger in the weeds
Some things are better left unseen
Commanding listeners to believe
Manipulations of narrations 'Anno Domini'
Not with a whimper, but a bang
He'll take the stage and leave their jaws upon the floor
Begging for more
So Father, won't you tend your flock and save us now?
Won't you save us now?
Come and save us
I hear you're looking for god
Well I can show you the way just as long as you can pay
But the price is going up
And like a prayer to the air
We deliver you to glory (Pay up!)
I swear you'll get what you need
And we can lead you to salvation
With the right denomination
It all lies in your hands
Or in your pocketbook to be more demanding
Don't you tread too close to the line this time
Don't get lead too close to the light this time
You went far too close to the line this time
Line this time
Hey! Hey kid! Hey kid - get a god!
Hey! Hey hey hey! Hey kid get a god!
So you committed a sin?
Well, we can rid that with a remedy
The bidding starts at $70
Sold!
To one and all now
Get your hands ready to make a withdrawal
You've got no other way to find what you want
If it's a saving that you're craving
And your confidence is fading
Be calm
The doctor's in
I got the cure, because I know where you've been
Don't you tread too close to the line this time
Don't get lead too close to the light this time
You went far coo close to the line this time
Line this time
If you wanna get up
Reserve a room on high
Put your coins in my hat
And don't ask why
Don't you tread too close to the line this time
Don't get lead too close to the light this time
You went far too close to the line this time
Line this time
Line this time
