Jesus was a terrorist 
Enemy of the state 
That's what the Romans labeled him 
So he was put to death 

He died for his beliefs 
What's changed today? 

Today bible-thumping cannibals 
Reap money from his name 
Buy cable networks & power 
With old ladies' checks 

If Jesus saw Pat Robertson 
What do you think he'd say? 

Tax-free they re-write our laws 
And sick 'em on you 
Women don't control their bodies 
TV preachers do 

Censor everything from bathing suits 
To science books 
From the schoolroom to the bedroom 
They want our thoughts - or else 

They treat us like the Romans 
Used to treat the Christians 
Even some churchgoing folks are scared 

Modern catacombs of fear 
Built with money, power and threats 
Rock'n'roll is labeled porn 
Sell a record, you're under arrest 

Instead of fighting AIDS 
They try to stop us having sex 
They brag that they won't quit 
Til they take dominion over our lives 

Is freedom of speech such a terrorist act 
Is spiritual peace such a satanic threat 
Believe what you want 
But we'll fight to keep 
Out heads from being cemented in your sand.
