Red Hot Chili Peppers - Shallow Be Thy Game
I was not created in the likeness of a fraud.
Your hell is something scary, I prefer a loving god.
We are not the center of this funny universe
And what is something worse:
I do not serve, in fear of such a curse !
Shallow be thy game 2000 years look in the mirror.
You play the game of shame and tell your people live in fear.
A rival to the way you see the bible let him be.
I'm a threat to your survival and your control company.
Chorus :
You'll never burn me
You'll never burn me
I will be your heretic, yeah !
You can't contain me
I am the power free
Truth belongs to everybody !
To anyone who's listening, you're not born into sin.
The guilt they try and give you, puke it in the nearest bin.
Missionary maddness sweep up culture with a broom.
Trashing ancient ways is par for the course,
it's fucking rude !
To think that you're above the laws of nature, what a joke.
Purple sasfies feeding masses
Smoke on which to choke.
I might be a monkey when it comes to being holy.
Fundamental hatred.
Get down on your knees and...
You'll never burn me
You'll never burn me
I will be your heretic, yeah !
You can't contain me
I am the power free
Truth belongs to everybody !
I was not created in the likeness of a fraud.
Your hell is something scary, I prefer a loving god.
We are not the center of this funny universe
And what is something worse:
I do not serve, in fear of such a curse !
You'll never burn me
You'll never burn me
I will be your heretic, yeah !
You can't contain me
I am the power free
Truth belongs to everybody !
You'll never burn me
You'll never burn me
I will be your heretic, yeah !
You can't contain me
I am the power free
Truth belongs to everybody !
