Lyrics
Jack the preacher's been a speaker
Since the dawning of time
Stood all day by the gates
As he told his lies
On his corner he'd talk longer
Than a man could stand
With every word, more absurd
Than his last
God ain't gonna save you my boy
You're just his favourite toy
He'll take your soul and then
He'll bring you down, so down
So bring it down
Oh bring it down
Yeah bring it down
So down
Monday morning he'd start bawling
At the pouring rain
By Friday evening at people leaving
On the downtown train
He was once a gentle talker
But now he screams
What he believes could turn you green
Yeah disturb your dreams
God's looking to take you apart
There's no love left in his heart
I swear that you are going down today
Bring what it may
