“In the velvet darkness,
of the blackest night,
burning bright,
there's a guiding star,
no matter what or who you are . . .
The darkness must go
down the river
of night's dreaming.
Flow morphia slow,
let the sun and light come streaming,
into my life
into my life
There's a light
there's a light
theres a light, light,
in the darkness
of everybody's life”

“But if you think that Jesus Christ is coming
Honey you've got another thing coming
If he ever finds out who's hi-jacked his name
He'll cut out his heart and turn in his grave
Islam is rising
The Christians mobilizing
The world is on its elbows and knees
It's forgotten the message and worships the creeds
[‘Get the gun, get the gun, get the gun
Stay away from the gun, stay away from the gun’]
If the real Jesus Christ were to stand up today
He'd be gunned down cold by the CIA
God will remind us what we already know
That the human race is about to reap what it's sown . . .
Armageddon days are here again ”
