And now, the Reverend Abraham Meekly, saver of souls
Though they broke my legs
They gave me a crutch to walk
Though they broke my legs
They gave me a crutch to walk
Though they broke my legs
They gave me a crutch to walk
Their laws to guide me
And a crutch to walk
Brothers and sisters, I have sinned more than sinning
I have been away these last four long years
But now I am returned to the fold, to be among my flock
I come as humble shepherd, embodied by the Almighty
The power above, the power which is in me
Because I am reborn, brothers and sisters
I am living proof that government saves
Brothers and sisters, I want us to
Show our faith in the powers that be
For we are the true believers
I want you to come forward together, come to me
And let us feel the power of the cross
Today′s lesson: stay in your homes except on Thursday
Do not stray from the path
It's well signposted, you can′t miss it really
And we're open all day
Now there's no need to rush
We′ve got plenty of pencils for everyone
They′ll be collecting tins for your donations
Cheque, credit card facilities available
The government sends stickers and badges on sale
T-shirts in small, medium and large
All at competitive prices
Put a down payment on your place in heaven
And buy me another four years, brothers and sisters
Dance, dance wherever you may be
I am the lord of the dance, said she
And if you don't dance, we have ways of making you dance
Government be with you!
