Man s his religion's enemy number one
Man is his religion's enemy number one;
He plants weeds and spins webs in his conscience:
Father Paulo would stand on the pulpit of his church
And extolls the philosophies of Jesus - and his actions:
Miracles, parables, his death in calvary, his resurrection...
Muhammad is recited in awe as the only prophet of Allah,
Yet Osama's Koran is brewed in Hebrew Torah, but he would
Swear in the of name of Allah for a jihad against the Jews and America!
Half-dressed, clean-shaven Buddha in his meditative poses
Would regurgitate the story of the theosophy of nirvana,
Abstains from earthly hussles and hibernates in the Himalayas.
Japanese're in sync with shinto shrines, even for the Chinese
Kung-fu's a devine kick, well atriculated to refine the soul.
Karl Marx observed that religion is the opiate of the masses'
Ask the scholars of sociology how in these hard times we flock
To holy places with our hard-earned peanuts to offer
In exchange for miracles, making millionaires of masquaraders.
Man makes and submits to the multi-images of his fertile mind,
Searching ever more for the devine, at the world's crossroads.
