The priest has been praying for your soul
and the doctor for your heart
does someone tell me how to live now that
we must live apart
and once we had a mother
but that's all over now
so wish you well and let them go
just as soon as you know how It's strang the world we live in
where the church leads you to hell
and the lawyers get the money
for the lives they divide and sell
and the only truth believed in
is the one up on the screen
so we live our lives like fugitives
and we were born to live like queens Once we all were daughters
now we never hear that name
and everything I could have learned
I just truned into begin
don't send me more letters
with your ignorance and rage
and I don't want your tight religion
not the sould you need to see It's strang the world we live in
where the church leads you to hell
and the lawyers get the money
for the lives they divide and sell
