My God (including; God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen / Bouree / Quartet / Living in the Past / My God (reprise) (Palais des Sports, Paris, 5th July 1975) Songtext
People what have you done?
Locked Him in His golden cage
Golden cage
Made Him bend to your religion
Him resurrected from the grave
From the grave
He is the God of nothing
If that′s all that you can see
You are the God of everything
He's inside you and me
So lean upon Him gently
And don′t call on Him to save
You from your social graces
And the sins you used to waive
The bloody Church of England
In chains of history
Requests your earthly presence
At the vicarage for tea
And the graven image
You know who
With his plastic crucifix
He's got Him fixed
Confuses me as to who and where and why
As to how he gets his kicks
He gets his kicks
Confessing to the endless sin
With endless whining sounds
You'll be praying ′til next Thursday
To all the gods that you can count
Locked Him in His golden cage
Golden cage
Made Him bend to your religion
Him resurrected from the grave
From the grave
He is the God of nothing
If that′s all that you can see
You are the God of everything
He's inside you and me
So lean upon Him gently
And don′t call on Him to save
You from your social graces
And the sins you used to waive
The bloody Church of England
In chains of history
Requests your earthly presence
At the vicarage for tea
And the graven image
You know who
With his plastic crucifix
He's got Him fixed
Confuses me as to who and where and why
As to how he gets his kicks
He gets his kicks
Confessing to the endless sin
With endless whining sounds
You'll be praying ′til next Thursday
To all the gods that you can count
