[Verse 1]
Tabloids, bellowing raw delight
Hail the return of the Teutonic Knights
Inbred for purity and spoiling for a fight
Another little puppet of the New Right
[Verse 2]
See-through dollars and mystery plagues
Varied detritus of Aquarian Age
Shutters on storefronts and shutters in the mind
We kill ourselves to keep ourselves safe from crime
[Chorus]
That's the gospel of bondage
The gospel of bondage
The gospel of bondage
[Verse 3]
We're so afraid of disorder we make it into a god
We can only placate with state security laws
Whose church consists of secret courts and wiretaps and shocks
Whose priests hold smoking guns
And whose sign is the double cross
[Verse 4]
But God must be on the side of the side that's right
And not the right that justifies itself in terms of might
Least of all a bunch of neo-nazis
Running hooded through the night
Which may be why He's so conspicuously out of sight
Tabloids, bellowing raw delight
Hail the return of the Teutonic Knights
Inbred for purity and spoiling for a fight
Another little puppet of the New Right
[Verse 2]
See-through dollars and mystery plagues
Varied detritus of Aquarian Age
Shutters on storefronts and shutters in the mind
We kill ourselves to keep ourselves safe from crime
[Chorus]
That's the gospel of bondage
The gospel of bondage
The gospel of bondage
[Verse 3]
We're so afraid of disorder we make it into a god
We can only placate with state security laws
Whose church consists of secret courts and wiretaps and shocks
Whose priests hold smoking guns
And whose sign is the double cross
[Verse 4]
But God must be on the side of the side that's right
And not the right that justifies itself in terms of might
Least of all a bunch of neo-nazis
Running hooded through the night
Which may be why He's so conspicuously out of sight
