Lyrics
They ask me why I'm hateful, why I'm bad They tell me I got things they never had They tell me go to church and see the light Cos the good lord's always right
So what, so what So what if jesus died on the cross So what about the fucker, I don't give a toss So what if the master walked on the water I don't see him trying to stop the slaughter They say I wouldn't have to live from bins If I would go along, confess my sins They say I shouldn't commit no crime Cos jesus christ is watching all the time
So what, so what So what if he's always over my shoulder I realise the truth as I get older I get to see what a con it is Because it's my life, mine not his Well, they say they're going to send me away Said they're going to make me pay We're sorry but you got to go But you were naughty, you said "no"
So what, so what So what if I see through the lies So what if the people I despise Twist my arm and make me work I'm no deaf, no fucking jerk I'm no spastic lying in the street I'm no superstar elite I'm just a person, a human being No you're not, you're a part of the machine You're a part our machine because we want you to be We've got you now and you'll never be free We can even have your body after you're dead We can take the eyes out of your fucking head Yes we'll take them out, use them again We can do it you know cos we've got your brain We'll crucify you like we crucified him We'll make you obey our every whim We got the power, the power and the glory I've heard that before in a different story But the story I heard covered up the truth Didn't touch on the actual factual proof Didn't say about the bodies in the concentration camps Didn't say about the (surgeons) knives underneath the lamps Doesn't say that the ovens are still warm Doesn't say that this wretched little form Is a human being who wants to live But not in the snot and shit they give
They say that I had better keep quiet Or they're gonna douse my light Jesus christ can save my life But I can always use my knife So what, so what, so what, so what, so what, so what, so what, so what
