S.M.C.

Big business ain’t easy

I’m sure you’d agree

Especially when the product is eternity-

To stay one step ahead we must achieve

And turn this holy temple

Into a factory

Is there anywhere you can run

To hide from these thieves? -

Cause eternity’s on sale today for a fee

Faith is buying me away

Buying me a way

To convert the masses into little servants

Faith is buying me away

Buying me a way

Buying me into your home (soul)

Our sanctuary of this high-rise

Our steeples our billboards

Our slogans our converts

Oh don’t forget to buy this T-shirt

As you leave

And open up the offering box

And give until it hurts

Show me an open heart and we’ll steal it away

Cause eternity’s on up for sale for a small fee today

You Know

This altar is a stage

Our sponsor must be paid

And maybe even make the front page
