about

From the split 7" record with Tomcat's Torpedo Band

lyrics

In church, when I was just a boy I was told that I was wicked
And believed that I was sickening
They tried to make me believe I was a creature of vice
They had to have me so bad they even dunked me under twice

But then I read the book from cover to cover
Saw the light and I discovered
History is just a flash in the pan
Not inspired by a god, just written by man
The fear of hell as a means of control
Can't be used to threaten my soul alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, well alright

In church, in a back room filled with pews
I was stowed away in the back with the Broadman Hymnal in hand
And that's where I learned to string a song together
From a queer choir director in that southern baptist town

In the pages there I saw a blueprint for rock'n'roll
A tome of worship made for praise only led me to the hell I'd raise
Adulate, exalt, extol, I choose to rock'n'roll all night
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, well alright
