As I watch the Watchtower fall
Nothing left to govern my body
I fall into the winter
And go from nice to naughty
Expose myself to 'spiritual pornography'
See things as they are
And not as they ought to be
Bore my eyes out like Zedekiah
Neutralize the memory
Cult leaders--they're liars
Not who they pretend to be
Fake suits and smiles
And just for now a friend to me
Knew all the while
You're just a corporate entity
Theocracy--
It's a nine-man democracy
Where the only votes that count
Were made in dishonesty
And can't walk out
Till you and your crew dishonor me
Exit signs painted with
"Death to everyone that leaves"
And six hate months later
Your stormtroopers call on me
Disfellowshipped--
Your hired thugs want to shun me
For not marching by your
Theological drumbeat
Eschatologically
You prove nonexistent
I'm now freed from captivity
To all false religion
I watch the Watchtower fall
I watch the Watchtower fall
I watch the Watchtower fall
I watch the Watchtower fall
Mind control--
They reach deep down
And mine out your soul
And keep the blood diamonds
And keep lying
You keep trying
And millions now living--
Guess what? They keep right on dying
Empty promises
Keeping kids out of college
While they suck down the Kool-Aid
And drop their full scholarships
Just like L. Ron Hubbard
And tales about starships
Invisible men present and
Millions now living with hardships
Turn in your time,
Rinse with meetings, repeat
Them five-year-old children better
Stay chained in their seats
Attendants holding up signs that say
"Please Be Seated"
But they should read instead as
"Please Be Mistreated"
"Justice and truth have been
Pushed aside by them.
The name of Jehovah
Means haughty pride for them.
Their prophecies all have no merit.
They rule by the stick and the carrot."
Reports of abuse and news of
UN involvement
The scarlet-colored beast
Releases a PR problem
Spin it like a D.J.--
"Our library books, it seems
Are due back today.
And only opposers ask
Why we're acting this way!"
Turn a blind eye, it's a lie
If two witnesses don't see it
Makes me wonder why we have
Jehovah God and Jesus
If crimes are only crimes
When two people see us,
I ask, do we need God,
Or is it God that needs us?
Apparently, justice is taking place
Without him
He's an absentee ballot
That's cast when you doubt him
If he's mad when we question,
Are we sure he has kids?
I got a toddler with two hundred-
Fifty questions as it is!
He built our brains, then turned off the software
Anyone else think there's something that might be odd there?
"So back up, you Witnesses!
Back up off my door.
No more of your literature
Littering my porch!
To hell with your lies
And your self-righteous veneer.
I'm enjoying my f-words and beer!"
