In every office, school and home
From the screens and newspapers
Religion is like a battering ram
The Bible, the Koran
Not as a carrot, but as such a stick
Brings light into the world
[Refrain:]
The dark water of eyes wide shut
Is a whirlpool of two thousand years
A pity, there’s one problem:
God can’t see us
God doesn’t exist
Television and telephone
Two windows into the outside world
The whole planet like a firing range
An almshouse and an outhouse
The mystery of Christians
The mystery of Muslims
Pointless holy war
Baptism and jihad
Humility and sharia
The nightmare has become a dream of reason
And delirium the norm
[Refrain:]
The dark water of eyes wide shut
Is the business of two thousands years
A pity, there’s one problem:
God doesn’t see this farce
God doesn’t exist
How convenient: prepaid paradise
Our Lord forgives everyone
Rape and kill, deceive, betray
Plus confession minus sins
The eternal business, excellent PR
You’ll eat up your own brain, devote yourself to the project
Jesus Christ is a superstar
Super-cash avatar
But his cross is the clinking of coins
The clinking of coins
The clinking of coins
The clinking of coins
A pity, there’s one problem:
God won’t see our nightmare
God doesn’t exist
