Amy Arena - New Religion lyrics
I'm disgusted by these sanctimonious bastards
Who baptize their flock with their fondlings
Masturbation, sodomies and hypocritical vows of chastity and poverty
They're all cold-hearted people
With nothing but murder and hate in their souls
Let me know if you believe in resurrection

It's called the Brooklyn Bridge
And I'm looking for a buyer
Maybe you're interested
I will give you a really good deal
'Cause I'm gonna start a new religion

They could get real jobs and pay taxes too
Well I'm not payin' anymore!
'Cause I'm gonna start a new religion
I wanna start a new religion!
I wanna start a new religion!
I don't believe in your heaven
I don't believe in your heaven...
Why should I burn in hell
'Cause I belong to a different religion?
If I'm a good person
Good people shouldn't be excluded!
Just because they haven't been baptized, batmitzvahed
Just be a good person, the best you can
And you won't have to change your religion!
'Cause I'm gonna start a new one
I wanna start a new religion!
I wanna start a new religion!
I'm so tired of the hatred
I
