Love and Prayer Mania
Ev‘rybody‘s talking ‚bout love these days
They say love could make this world a better place
Sounds like extinguishing fi re with gasoline
It‘s been tried in the past and it works for the ones
That are loved, but after the love is gone
Its big ugly twin called hate is moving in
With hallelujah they try to school ya
While money talks you walk the chalk
Who will put an end to this insanity
Who will tuck these wackos into bed
Could it be there‘s no need for a saviour
If we only stop this love and prayer mania
For some there‘s not enough praying
And talking to angels and organ playing
Worship is their clue to save the earth
I‘d feel much safer with some good engineers
to turn down the heating right now right here
And some psychiatrists to soothe everybody‘s nerves
With hallelujah they try to school ya
While money talks you walk the chalk
Who will put an end to this insanity
Who will tuck these wackos into bed?
Could it be there‘s no need for a saviour
If we only stop this love and prayer mania
