Wrote the lyrics back in the 80's...and almost 30 years later same old same old
One man band, self-proclaimed late '70s rock god
One man band
Story behind the song
Wrote this when a local scandal broke in the mid 80's...now again in the news and the muse struck
Lyrics
Betrayed by the church
A little boy, is raped by his minister
And the lord, of the local devine...just ignores it, as itf it is just fine
Now here come the lawyers, in their elegant shirts...and you best believe them
With all their wealth, that's been provided stealing all their money from the church
I'm on my way home, God
Is it a question of morals?
It's just a question of time
The devil, he din't help me write this song
He's too busy leading the blind
Now here come the lawyers
It's just a waste of time...for us mere mortals
Ask me your questions, I am not God
I cannot change your water into wine
I'm on my way home God
We carry the weight of the world
