Religion (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Suck my mouth.
Suck my pain away.
Helplessness,
I am hard to stain.
Potentially inappropriate…

I am naked,
before you.
Look at me.
You came for me.
I pray to you.
You are in me…

You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I’m loving you.
You’re loving me.
You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I’m touching you.
You’re touching me…

Intoxicated with your breath.
My eyes close,
I am a mess.
Starving and cold and I need your love…

You keep me real.
You lift me up.
Prayer soft,
I am in love.
Devotee of your immortal love.

Brutal truth.
It is profound.
Can you hear the sound,
of my breath?

You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I’m loving you.
You’re loving me.
You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I’m touching you.
You’re touching me.

Religion (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

It was early Sunday morning
Everyone in the house was still asleep
She made some toast and coffee
Took a shower and made herself smell sweet
She said, "I don’t want a bus ride,
I believe that the walk might help me think
Got a heart kind of heavy
I need some big hat and gloves, shoes and bag religion!"

Religion
That’s my decision
Some of that "make me feel better when I shout!!!" religion
That’s my decision

Papa Henry was full of spice
He was a man usually nice
But something got into him last night
Made him want to fuss and hollar
The entire house was in a sweat
His bottle got broken and the floor got wet
"Clean it up!" you could hear him scream
Then he said, "I’m going out"
I need religion

Religion
That’s my decision
Some of that "raise up the roof, 90 proof" religion
That’s my decision
Religion
It’s my decision, oh yes it is
That’s my decision

It’s the story about a good family
Who doesn’t live anymore in good harmony
They are people who love their daughter and son
They try to give them religion

Little Billy likes his best friend Jack
How in the world could he be like that
Mama and Henry wanna have that chat
Boy, you need religion

Little Betty, whatcha gonna do?
There’s a child growing inside of you
You should’ve stopped and thought things through
Little girl you need a vision of religion

Religion
And that’s my decision
Some of that "how’d I get on Rikki Lake" religion
That’s my decision
Religion
Get a little,
Religion
Get a little
Religion

Chorus
I and i respect all religion
I and i me pray to the almighty one
Me give thanks and praise fe the righteous way
But me can’t follow…no me can’t follow one

Verse
Me say me look to the hindu ca me a indian
Me look to the muslim and sikhism
Ina india too much to choose from
Sit down with sadoo.. indian holy man
Listen man a talk and me start understand
Go down africa and me reach a jam one
Sit down with rasta and start fe reason
Read out of the bible talk to christian
When you check it out could a confusion
Religion bring war and contradiction
One god we have one destination
Respect each other and nothing can wrong

Chorus

Verse
Me say me learn bout rama and hari krishna
Guru gobind singh and the height of allah
Me look to the east and pray to mecca
Jesus christ christian messiah
Ina jerusalem was born the saviour

The conquering lion of the tribe of judah

That’s why the angels a fan me with the eagles feather

Chorus

Verse 3
Ca me say nuff mon a pray to animal and images
Some kill animal in sacrifices
Say nuff of them a follow demon and witches

But i and i no mek fe mek no compromises
Give thanks to the lord and the highest praises
You spread the good word and bring good wishes
You mix ina evil the highest watches
You clean up your heart and break no promises
Live good with all colour and all races
Overcome tribulation man faces
A me say dust-to-dust and ashes to ashes

Chorus

Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album too low for zero

Well he could almost taste the money
But he was sitting in a den of thieves
Looking for the great awakening
Trying to find a way to leave
But that’s when he got religion
And the light went on inside
He said somebody up there likes me
Now he’s working for the holy guide

He got drunk but he don’t remember
That he’d been drinking in a bar downtown
When he thought he heard a choir of angels
Singing in the tiki lounge
And that’s when he got religion
From no salesman on tv
Just a tap on the shoulder in the parking lot
He still drinks but he does believe

Religion, you do the best you can
We all make the same mistakes
We’re gonna wind up with the man

Religion, oh you do the best you can
We all make the same mistakes
We’re gonna wind up with the man

She was silent as he paid her
But the thanks she got was next to none
And as her car pulled out of the motel
She felt the presence of someone
And that’s when she got religion
In the front of a compact ford
Just a gentle voice on the stereo
Now she’s a working girl who loves the lord

Religion (Letra)

I never really understood religion
Except it seems a good excuse to kill
I never really could make a decision
I don’t surpose i ever really will

I can’t relate to any power structure
Where ego is the driving energy
I let mine go long, long time ago, now
When i decided that i would be free

Only thing i understand is living
The biggest sacrifice to make is death
Once you’re dead, there’s noting left for giving
The life means fighting your every breath

(original by front 242; remixed by liam)
‘right’ branded on my brow
‘wrong’ graven on my mind
You see, the sin is in me

When will it stop unfolding
When will i ever be face to face
With the devil in me

(chorus)
Let me burn you… let me burn you…
Let me burn you down…
Let me burn you… let me burn you…
Let me burn you down…
Burn you down…

(let me… let me…)

Brain wants to rule the heart
Heart wants to tie the hands
Unseat the assassin in me

So you cry, not to give it away
So you lie…

(chorus)

Born with a wicked charm
Torn by this driving harm
You see, it moves into me

So you lie, not to give it away
So you cry

(chorus)
