"Take Me To Church"

[Verse 1]

My lover's got humour

 She's the giggle at a funeral

 Knows everybody's disapproval

 I should've worshipped her sooner

 If the heavens ever did speak

 She's the last true mouthpiece

 Every Sunday's getting more bleak

 A fresh poison each week

 "We were born sick" you heard them say it

 My church offers no absolutes

 She tells me "Worship in the bedroom"

 The only heaven I'll be sent to

 Is when I'm alone with you

 I was born sick

 But I love it

 Command me to be well

[Pre-Chorus]

 Aaay. Amen. Amen. Amen.

[Chorus 2x]

Take me to church

 I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies

 I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife

 Offer me that deathless death

 Good God, let me give you my life

[Verse 2]

 If I'm a pagan of the good times

 My lover's the sunlight

 To keep the Goddess on my side

 She demands a sacrifice

 Drain the whole sea

 Get something shiny

 Something meaty for the main course

 That's a fine-looking high horse

 What you got in the stable?

 We've a lot of starving faithful

 That looks tasty

 That looks plenty

 This is hungry work

[Chorus 2x]

 Take me to church

 I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies

 I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife

 Offer me my deathless death

 Good God, let me give you my life

[Bridge]

 No masters or kings

 When the ritual begins

 There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin

 In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene

 Only then I am human

 Only then I am clean

[Pre-Chorus]

 Ooh oh. Amen. Amen. Amen.

[Chorus 2x]

 Take me to church

 I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies

 I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife

 Offer me that deathless death

 Good God, let me give you my life.
