Lyrics Green Day – East Jesus Nowhere
Text:
And we will see how godless a nation we have become.
Raise your hands now to testify
Your confession will be crucified
You’re a sacrificial suicide
Stand up! All the white boys
Sit down! And the black girls
Stand up! You’re the soldiers
Sit down! Of the new world
Put your faith in a miracle
And it’s non-denominational
Join the choir we’ll be singing
In the church of wishful thinking
A fire burns today
Of blasphemy and genocide
The sirens of decay
Will infiltrate the faith fanatics
Oh, bless me, Lord, for I have sinned
It’s been a lifetime since I last confessed
I threw my crutches in «The river of a shadow of doubt»
And I’ll be dressed up in my Sunday best
Say a prayer for the family
Drop a coin for humanity
Ain’t this uniform so flattering?
I never asked you a god damn thing
A fire burns today
Of blasphemy and genocide
The sirens of decay
Will infiltrate the faith fanatics
Don’t test me
Protest me
You will disappear
I want to know who’s allowed to breed
All the dogs who never learned to read
Missionary politicians
And the cops of a new religion
A fire burns today
Of blasphemy and genocide
The sirens of decay
Will infiltrate the inside
Yeah
