AT THE CHURCH OF ST JUDAS AND THE POOR


AT THE CHURCH OF ST JUDAS AND THE POOR


At the Church of St Judas and The Poor
Take off your boots all shoes of common trade
Leave a mask for street parades at the door
At the Church of St Judas and The Poor

At the Church of St Judas and The Poor
No altars, make no grand churches anymore
Nor practices in blood or body, none of war
At the Church of St Judas and The Poor

At the Church of St Judas and The Poor
An endless parade of philanthropy redeems
A finery, a fashion, all made to be as seems
At the Church of St Judas and The Poor.

At the Church of St Judas and The Poor
We criminalise those who judge, compare
We take their wealth so we can give a care
At the Church of St Judas and The Poor.
