Lenders in the Temple (Demo)
The church in the desert Like a purse stuffed with gold Is surrounded by the hungry The infirm and old And though they make show Of sweeping scraps from their tables They stick it to the poor Every chance that they're able
There's lenders in the temple Jackals in the house of God
So me and this fellow Broke in with fake guns We made out with the coffers As the clegry sat stunned I said, 'This mansion was built On the backs of the poor So just pray for our souls As you lie on the floor'
There's lenders in the temple Jackals in the house of God
The priest pulled a pistol As we ran out the door I felt a bullet rip through me And I fell to the floor Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com My friend stopped to help And was shot several times The money fell in the pool Of blood, brains, and grime
There's lenders in the temple Jackals in the house of God
The priest took to his knees Like a man meant to pray Hes vestments soaking up gore His greedy eyes glazed Saw he wasn't giving last rights For my friend growing cold The cops swarmed around me As he clawed for his gold
Flip their tables Burn their notes Let's string 'em up And slit their throats
There's lenders in the temple There's lenders in the temple There's lenders in the temple
