Goddamned

I'm marching to Zion
A camera in my hand
I hear people crying, dying
For this blood-stained land
The streets of old Jerusalem
Are lined with souvenirs and those buying them
It sounds cold but I cannot see
How this theme park has shaped history

'Cause virgins don't have babies
And water, it isn't wine
And there's a holy spirit, maybe
But she would never rent a room with walls built by mankind
Mary and Mohammed
Are screaming through the clouds
For you to lay your goddamned arms down
Rip your bigot roots up from the earth and salt the goddamned ground

Stand in line patiently
To supercharge your rosary
Or stuff your prayers inside this wall
We once had God trapped in this great hall
But we've been cast out from this place
They say a prophet floated from here to outer space
Am I crazy? Maybe it's me
But this all sounds like mythology

'Cause virgins don't have babies
And water, it isn't wine
And there's a holy spirit, maybe
But she would never rent a room with walls built by mankind
Mary and Mohammed
Are screaming through the clouds
For you to lay your goddamned arms down
Rip your bigot roots up from the earth and salt the goddamned ground

Zeus was afraid of his girlfriend so he swallowed her in bed
And he bore forth Athena when they cracked open his head
Her brother tried to rape her, Athena got away
And when his seed hit the ground, the grass gave birth that day

Now we all freely admit
This story's clearly bullshit
No one would lay down their life or start a war for it
So throw your stones and pray
You'll be rewarded someday
I hope it all goes your way
But something tells me

No one's coming to save you
No one's coming to save you
No one's coming to save you
Save yourselves
From turning earth into hell
No one's coming to save you
No one's coming to save you
No one's coming to save you
No one's coming to save you
Mary and Mohammed
Are screaming through the clouds
For you to lay your goddamned arms down
Rip your bigot roots up from the earth and salt the goddamned ground
