Vulture Authority - Working Class Jesus Lyrics

I am your messiah
Disciples and I are here to say
Across the picket line, Satan awaits
All that's holy is on our side
We won't beg for God-given rights
Nor pray for fair pay, we'll go on strike

I don't come in peace, I'm a sword-bearer
I'll burn the bush and start a war on error
Throw money lenders out my temple
Give it to the poor, it's that simple

Haven't you heard, I'm bringing heaven to earth
Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani
No love left for the enemy
So force the rich through the eye of a needle
I am the working class Jesus

Come and talk to the Redeemer
I'll help you escape mainstream media
And smite every lie they feed you

I'm revolting religiously
Against ubiquitous inequality
And right-wing antichrist ideology

The world's insane yet riddled with boredom
I'd rather live in Sodom and Gomorrah
We're born and bred to be capital's children
Father, father, I beg for an abortion

Haven't you heard, I'm bringing heaven to earth
Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani
No love left for the enemy
So force the rich through the eye of a needle
I am the working class Jesus

Not being metaphorical I'm being metaphysical
Power for all, not just the individual
Forget all debt, you are now forgiven
For your saviour is risen
I'm a Jewish Palestinian radical
Watch me work miracles

Never again will the poor stand alone
These are the last days of Rome
Oligarchs are going to hell
They're going home

Haven't you heard, I'm bringing heaven to earth
Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani
No love left for the enemy
So force the rich through the eye of a needle

Haven't you heard, I'm bringing heaven to earth
Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani
No love left for the enemy
So force the rich through the eye of a needle
I am the working class Jesus
