Holy Father

Here is an old gem from the archives, a great little piece for a heavy metal or thrash band. Just the depths of the diversity of the lyrics within my book called “Without The Music.” If you are in a band or like great writing my book is a must. It took thirty years to write it. 

Holy Father

They always dress in black
With claws like lions ready to attack
Love is good love is to stay
Just don’t get in their way
Cause vermin if you do
They’re gonna crucify you

Oh holy father, father in the sky
Bless the B-2 bomber to make our enemy die
Abortion is bad killing is not meant to be
That is why we endorse the death penalty

Like an old suit they wear a smile
They perform with dancer’s grace and style
Feeding people lies since their youth
It’s a miracle anyone digests the truth
Oh holy father, father in the sky
Be with your people in places high
Help us opiate the poor
Let the peasant believe in our war

They always dress in black
With claws like lions ready to attack
Love is good love is to stay
Just don’t get in their way
Cause vermin if you do
They’re gonna crucify you

O holy father, father in the sky
Don’t give them the time to understand why
Keep on saying it’s from the book
And pray the people don’t take a look

We know it’s this but we’ll tell them that
Starve the poor while the rich get fat
It doesn’t matter if they’re young or old
As long as they do as their told
Oh holy father, father in the sky
In the still of night I hear a baby cry
O holy father, father in the sky

Could you please tell me why
