Worship Worship the air and worship the land Worship your country and worship a man Only sell your soul if it’s for the right cause: A nod of acknowledgement or a round of applause No need for studies on moral thought If you keep in mind that always you are watched And no one can spite you For putting others in a box Because your leader above Gave you the job Worship your father and worship your priest For sins against friends, your rewards never cease Worship your money and worship yourself Perhaps if you pray hard enough you may never fear hell For no one can claim to be holier than thou If your prizes and idols aren’t where their heads bow Cups or crosses or thorns or vows I’ll meet you in heaven where glories abound
