Lyrics
There was once a special book
It got changed by fascist crooks
(Save me please for I am weak)
There were once some great ideas

Now they're watered down too thin
(Save me please for I am weak)
(Save me please for I'm a sheep)
Well I suppose it's human nature

But when he said
"Don't make an idol of me"
"Don't make an idol of me"
"Don't make an idol of me"

The Roman Empire never died
(Save me I am not a goat)
Just changed it to the Catholic Church
(Dionysus has?)

The Roman Empire never died
(Have a?)
(Save me I am not a goat)
(laughing)

But when he said
"Don't make an idol of me"
"Don't make an idol of me"
"Don't make an idol of me"

Plastic idols of me
Plaster idols of me
"Don't make an idol of me"
Well when I walk the shores of Galilee

Where only the spirit can talk to me
Well I walk the shores of Galilee
Desert, sand, no one can touch me
Don't touch me!

No!
Oh no!
Oh no!
Oh no!

Oh no!
Oh no!
What's this?
What's this?

All these crimes
committed in my name?
Oh well
