Seduction of the Innocent

[Verse 1]
He always wears his bible belt
The collar under his head
It's like a noose around his neck
His sandaled feet don't touch the ground
Ears don't hear a sound
Seduction Of The Innocent

[Chorus]
Everybody thinks there's always a reason
Need a reason to cry
You kiss the hand of the man for all seasons
And don't know why

[Bridge]
Say it friend, if you had to do it all over again
Would you know the trickery that he's praying?

[Verse 2]
The padre looks well fed
Remember what the good book said
Vultures circle overhead
Whatever gets you through the night
Friends sing to clear your mind
Seduction Of The Innocent

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Say it friend, if you had to do it all over again
Would you know the trickery that he's praying ?
Everybody thinks there's always a reason
Need a reason to cry
You kiss the hand of the man for all seasons
And don't know why

[Outro]
Say it friend, if you had to do it all over again
Would you know the trickery that he's praying?
