I Manipulate



Does Your Soul Crave Center Stage?

Have You Heard About The Latest Rage?

Read Your Bible By Lightning Flash

Get Ordained At The Thunder Crash

Build A Kingdom With A Cattle Prod

Tell The Masses It's A Message From God

Where The Innocent Congregate

I Manipulate



Take Your Notebooks, Turn With Me

To The Chapter On Authority

Do You Top The Chain Of Command

Rule Your Family With An Iron Hand

I Dispense Little Pills Of Power

From My Hideaway Ivory Tower

From The Cover Of Heaven's Gate

I Manipulate



Now It's Time To Fill In The Space

Where We Talk About The Woman's Place

Do You Want To Build A Happy Home?

Have You Sacrificed A Mind Of Your Own?

'cause A Good Wife Learns To Cower

Underneath The Umbrella Of Power

From The Cover Of Heaven's Gate

I Manipulate



Yes, I Know That Parable

That's The Story Of The Prodigal

If You Question What I'm Teaching You

You Rebel Against The Father Too

If He Loved Him Why'd He Let Him Go?

Well, I Guess I Don't Really Know

But I See It's Getting Late...
