painted window - rock and roll religion lyrics
[benedictine monks chanting]
my whole life i’ve spent searching for a meaning
but whenever i think i’m close
my trail leads me back to rock and roll
i’m not a product of no to people
i ain’t a gift from god
even though i was raised a religious boy
my prayer is rock and roll
yeah, i gave my parents h-ll until they kicked me out
then i started a rock and roll life
kept alive by the sweat, noise and the rush
rushing down the same path
but it ain’t a stairway to heaven
it’s gonna be a baptism by fire
my whole life i’ve spent searching for a meaning
but whenever i think i’m close
my trail leads me back to rock and roll
i’m not a product of no two people
i ain’t a gift from god
even though i was raised a religious boy
my prayers are all rock and roll
god gave us heads so we could bang them to a beat
hands to write and lips to sing not speak
but when god made sound
he didn’t know i was a’coming
yeah, my bread is a dirty heavy riff
my wine a guitar screaming out in the open air
bangers can’t be choosers
cafeteria rockers need not apply
my whole life i’ve searched for a meaning
but whenever i seem close
my trail leads me back to rock and roll
i’m not a product of no two people
i ain’t a gift from god
i was raised a religious boy
but my prayers were all rock and roll
