My lover's got hu mor,
she's the giggle at a funeral
Knows everybody's disapproval,
I should've worshipped her sooner
If the heavens ever did speak,
she's the last true mouthpiece
Every Sunday's getting more bleak,
a fresh poison each week
We were born sick, you heard them say it
My church offers no absolutes
She tells me worship in the bedroom
The only heaven I'll be sent to
Is when I'm alone with you
I was born sick, but I love you
Command me to be well
Amen, amen, amen
Take me to church,
I'll worship like a dog
At the shrine of your life,
I'll tell you my sins
And you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Oh good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church,
I'll worship like a dog
At the shrine of your life,
I'll tell you my sins
And you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death,
oh good God, let me give you my life
If I'm a pagan of the good time,
my love is the sunlight
Keep the goddess on my side,
she demands her sacrifice
Drink the whole sea,
get some shiny
Something eating for the main course
It's a fine -looking house
What you got in the stable?
We've a lot of starving faithful
That looks tasty
That looks plenty
This is hungry work
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog
At the shrine of your life
I'll tell you my sins
So you can sharpen your knife
Offer me my deathless death
A good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church,
I'll worship like a dog
At the shrine of your life,
I'll tell you my sins
So you can sharpen your knife
Offer me my deathless death
Oh good God, let me give you my life
No masters or kings
when the ritual begins
There is no sweeter in nocence
than our gentle sin
In the madness and soil
of that sad earthly scene
Only then I am human,
only then I am clean
Oh, oh, amen, amen,
amen
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog
In the shrine of your life
I'll tell you my sins
And you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Let me give you my life
Take me to church
I'll watch you like a dog
At the shrine of your life
I'll tell you my sins
And you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that darkness
There's a good God
Let me give you my life you
