The Debate Game

I think it's bad
well I think it's good
let's debate religion
you think we should?

wiped out cultures
brought the word
controls the masses
tames the herd

promotes poverty
helps the poor
The Inquisition
we know what for

faulty preachers
Um...The Pope?
that one's mine
a guy can hope

you take hope too
this still the game?
breeds hate in people
someone's to blame

forces beliefs
declares the truth
brutal punishments
a tooth for a tooth

your copying me
but with a twist
come over here
put down that fist!!!
