lyrics

"Jesus Camping"

I hope the rapture finally comes so you can be
Saved from yourself
You want your pie in the sky, why don’t you go there yourself?

Fueling the nuclear airwaves, prayers and paychecks
Won’t be enough
Fallout comes, good intentions bring out the worst in us

Your Family circus prank
Taking life savings to the bank

Bad faith and science an even worse alliance
So full of shit
Riding the cashcow of million dollar evangelics

Nonprofit off their faith
And then throw out another date

Good intentions bring out the worst in us
Good intentions bring out the worst in us
Good intentions bring out the worst in us
Good intentions bring out the worst in us

So dig yourself a grave
So you can finally be saved

What makes you so conceited?
Your prophecies defeated
With every date repeated
Your failures are deep seeded

When I see someone praying
Don’t hear the words you’re saying
Quit damning their salvation
No trace of your derangement

Looks like your god’s gone camping
You’re constantly revamping
The Jesus Christ free market
Let’s get this rapture started

Some donate all their savings
And their worldly belongings
The rapture passed them, sadly
Maybe they’ll kill their families

Bodies of children in hell
Turn into little angels
Cue in eugenic rhetoric
Survival of the fetish

‘Cause doomsday didn’t happen
That was just Jesus campin’
Straight from the mouth of madness
Their blood is your Black Sabbath

I guess that ain’t your problem
You make doomsdays, you don’t solve them
Come on, fess up, or just
Shut up

Good intentions bring out the worst in us
Good intentions bring out the worst in us
Good intentions bring out the worst of us
Good intentions bring out the worst in us
