Brother, Keep Preaching

Two black soul brothers Standing on the corner In front of Metro center On a Friday night In the heart of the new evil empire The center of the beast Hell Central Preaching the word of god The news of the end of the world The proverbial end times Were upon us and coming soon The commuters, workers and bemused tourists Walk on by the preacher men Some pay attention, most walk on by They did not want to hear They did not understand And the preacher man kept Preaching the word of god And no one paid any attention None at all God is going to punish us God is coming soon To punish the wicked and the evil And to set things right God is going to punish the U.S. For its arrogance, hubris and hypocrisy For its greed and evil Disguised as saving the world From the evil ones God is coming, oh yeah he is on his way And boy is he angry at us At the entire human race And God, let me tell yah He ain't the wimpy, wampy pappy White boy false god of the New Testament The false deity that the evil Reverend Farwell And the smarmy Pat Robinson worship Hell no God ain't that god God is a mean, angry powerful God The god of the Old Testament The god of the Koran and the god of old The god that man once feared Yeah, I am talking about that god Jehovah, Zeus, Allah and a thousand other names The god that our ancestors feared The real deal, and boy is he pissed off And he is coming to set up straight And send most of us straight to hell
