Big business ain-t easy
I-m sure you-d agree
Especially when the product is eternity-
To stay one step ahead we must achieve
And turn this holy temple
Into a factory
Is there anywhere you can run
To hide from these thieves? -
Cause eternity-s on sale today for a fee
Faith is buying me away
Buying me a way
To convert the masses into little servants
Faith is buying me away
Buying me a way
Buying me into your home (soul)
Our sanctuary of this high-rise
Our steeples our billboards
Our slogans our converts
Oh don-t forget to buy this T-shirt
As you leave
And open up the offering box
And give until it hurts
Show me an open heart and we-ll steal it away
Cause eternity-s on up for sale for a small fee today
You Know
This altar is a stage
Our sponsor must be paid
And maybe even make the front page
