Swinging Like Judas lyrics

Preachers cheating people everywhere I look.
Bleaching white the pages of a bloodstained book.
Two thousand years of dogmatised hypocrisy;
So now I think it s time we tried some new philosophy.

I m telling you!

They teach of peace and love,
Yet stoke the sulfurous pyres of war.
Pray kiss this seal and glove,
That stroke drug-money, gun and whore.

Pious liars have all deceived us;
Bled the beggars, fed the choosers.
Our prayers shall have been heeded,
Whence ye sinners swing like Judas.

Swing!

Christian, Pagan, Hindu, Muslim, Sikh & Jew;
Just face these fundamental facts I preach at you.
We ve a duty to the future not to self-destruct;
We better learn to live as one or else this planet s fucked.

I m telling you!

It suits the leader s needs,
When we fight amongst ourselves.
For their sacrilegious greed,
We ll evoke such holy hells.

But just who ll give a damn,
For your countless hours of prayer,
When we face the fall of man,
Witness our children in despair?

Swing!

Priests incant and Mullahs sing,
Of Armageddons they would bring;
Yet overlooked one vital thing,
Someday like Judas they could swing.

Hearts and minds the hate infuses.
None are winners - all now losers.
Walk the path that Satan chooses,
And in time you ll swing like Judas!

Swing!
