lyrics

Don't you think you look so pretty in that dress?
Your parent's pride and joy in your very Sunday best
If they only knew my true intentions
To live out my fondest divine interventions
Don't you think I'd like a taste of your flesh?

Did you say that you're afraid and you'd tell?
And do you think I give a damn I've got no soul to sell
"Correcteth, delighteth, chastiseth"
Devour the children in siege and straightness
Did you know I'm taking you straight to hell?

CHORUS:
I'm killing you with compassion
A post-mortem satisfaction
Atoned by self-mortification
Prophetic extravagations
Violating my urethra
To increase this morbid paraphilia
Old-fashioned religious zealots never seem to change

Please forgive me, Mrs. Budd, for what I've done
And please forgive me, Jeremiah, for what I have become
If you only knew how sweet a flavor
For every little boy and girl that I savor
But if it's any consolation, little Gracey died a virgin

REPEAT CHORUS

Never seem to change, whoa-oh
They never seem to change
