He said that he knew Jesus
Came knocking at my door
He promised me salvation
He let me know the score
Asked to his congregation
They passed the plate to me
I made no contribution
He said salvation I won't see
Now mister politician
You know I hear the words you say
You will not raise our taxes
Or take our guns away
But you're up for re-election
And give yourself a raise instead
Now the tax is up and the guns are banned
And you deny what you once said
The criminals have the rights you say
But the victims pay the price
As they're kicking in your door
Guess we're supposed to treat them nice
It's called the legal system
Due process so they say
It has no place for justice
So the victims always pay
