There’s nothing I can do
There’s nothing I can say
And even if I could
And even if I would

Heartless rich and greedy
Watch the churches rape the needy

And even if I could

Blinded believers and doomsday deceivers
Are driving you out of your head
Look in the mirror, the answer is near
Though your sanity hangs by a thread

There’s nothing I can do
There’s nothing I can say
And even I could
And even I would
It never goes away
