God of Avarice Songtext
von Propagandhi

I′ve had my doubts all along
Your head is bowed but I don't believe you′re really praying
'Cause I've seen no sign
That you believe a single word you′re mumbling
There′s nothing that hints you've been touched by
The light of an all loving one

A God of empathy
Calling out from the shore
A line for those in need
The ones that you despise

Present to me
A God of cruelty, I′ll agree
Yeah, you're following faithfully
Mocking from down below
Sniveling in the shadows


A God of avarice
Greed and gluttony
Your darkest impulses
The fires, all consuming

To be saved by a final prayer
Leaving all your sins behind
Approaching the needle′s eye
And dropping into endless fire

The God of avarice
Greed and gluttony
Your darkest impulses
The spite

The God of avarice
Greed and gluttony
The darkest impulses
The fires, all consuming
