Always Been Right

In a world of us and them

It happens now and then

That faith becomes a battle

Between two cultured men

Father john was said to feel

That only god was real

Whereas michael was a rebel

An atheist with zeal

Both traveled overseas

To lecture their beliefs

And disparage the foundation of the others ideals

A day was fixed upon

To weigh the goings-on

The saintly father john was saying

I've always been right

The word makes me strong

Always been right

And everyone else wrong

We've always been right

To fight how we've fought

Always been right

And everyone else

Has always been, always been wrong

And so the day turned into night

The crowd had become wild

No one knew the matter

But they were eager to fight

Next morning when it cleared

Old john had disappeared

His brother found his bible

But it was torn and smeared

And michael was revived

He spent the night inside

The temple he had loathed and ridiculed all his life

And at the crack of dawn

He knelt down by the throne

Begging for the gods to listen

They've always been right

To do what they've done

Always been right

And everyone else wrong

They've always been right

To teach how they've taught

Always been right

And everyone else

Has always been wrong

They've always been right
