priests of the modern age - sam mccabe lyrics

[verse 1]
we want our leaders head and shoulders above the rest
we want a jesus who agrees with our politics
want to follow a dollar, not a crucifix
want a master who will promise to meet our need
cause we’d rather be in egypt than believe
would take the path that we can see

[verse 2]
when politicians are the priest of the modern age
you’ll be sacrificed for power at a minimum wage
you’ll be put out to pasture by the god you made
you can wrap your soul in red and blue
serving idols that’ll never carе about you
it’ll leaven the lump, just lеt it prove

{bridge]
things are not ok
they’re not ok
they’re not ok
things are not ok
they’re not ok
they’re not ok

[verse 3]
we want a pastor who will feed us what we like
tabernacles into markets, investing tithes
shop around until we get a return we like
turn the house of prayer into a den of thieves
stealing glory from god to sing songs about me
funny how encounters are never countering
[verse 4]
confirmation bias never saved a soul
celebrity jesus can’t make you whole
you can’t buy and sell what you’ve never owned
only show sunday morning to be blessed
the only thing i need a savior for is stress
if you make it easy, i’ll say yes

{bridge]
things are not ok
they’re not ok
they’re not ok
things are not ok
they’re not ok
they’re not ok

[verse 5]
gameshow griftin’ politic*in’ media stars
won’t get down in the dirt to heal a broken heart
cause you can’t stop the act once it starts
