Lyrics
Verse: We got outlaws We got blue laws Come Sunday, we roll up the sidewalks 300,000 hypocrites, baby, I count myself amongst We got poets and preachers, we got hookers Hell I’ve might have one in the trunk --- Verse: We had us an underwear mogul A little man, scared and ignoble Thought he might try out that whole master race thing baby Since then we’ve mostly covered up the truth But if you wern’t rich and white, he’d take away your right to reproduce Anywhere else it might be a sin, but we named the mall after him --- Chorus: In the city that cancer built In the middle of the bible belt If you ain’t sitting on a pew come Sunday morning We’ll just call the devil and tell him you’re comming --- Bridge: We’ve got Maya Angelou At her place at Bartram Way She rides prettier words than me They come from the same damn, ugly place The same goddamn damn ugly place --- Chorus: In the city that cancer built In the middle of the bible belt If you ain’t sitting on a pew come Sunday morning We’ll just call the devil and tell him you’re comming --- Verse: We've got the best hospitals for curing what we caused I bet the same people own them, baby. There ought to be a law. --- Verse: 40 miles south of Maybery A town that was mostly make-believe A point ‘round here thare aint many that wanna concdede Selling beer on a Sunday morning, still carries a heavy fine Wouldn’t you rather be learning ‘bout, how Jesus turned water in to wine --- Chorus: In the city that cancer built In the middle of the bible belt If you’re ass ain’t on a pew come Sunday morning We’ll just call the devil and tell him you’re comming
