You can have morals
And still be your own man
Who cares what perverts preach
When god knows you can
If those converts that prey
Stray from their plan
Than doesn't that make you
The more holy man
Not the church
The preacher
Not the church
The preacher
If I drink too much
And have bad thoughts
I ruin my life
And stop giving enough
Then who are you to doubt
That I'm a good man
I don't spout my teachings
To those that I scam
Not the church
The preacher
Not the church
The preacher
Through the bars he tells
Me the tales of hell
What thoughts prevail
Snakes eating their tails
Judgement thinly veiled
Corruption on its tail
Debt beyond the pail
God knows you failed
