lyrics

I saw you sitting shiny colourful clothes
I saw your people throwing their sticks and stones
There is no doubt now you are closer to god
And absolute power, there is no doubt now

I am helpless I have to obey
I am helpless I have to obey
I am helpless I have to obey

Call me into the bedroom
My eyes full of fear
If I don’t like it you can kill and cremate me here
Beside his pillow the revolver it lay
“There is no doubt I am God” yeah that’s what he’d say.

I am helpless I have to obey
I am helpless I have to obey
I am helpless I have to obey

All is not right
All is not right
All is not right
