Mediaevil

Peter Hammill

[Verse 1]
God lives in the cathedral
Or so the Archbishop states...
All fealty to the Church
All power to the state!

[Verse 2]
Gold keys to the cathedral
They go with the bishop's cowl;
He lives a spiritual life of material wealth
Are things so very different now?

[Bridge]
Oh, yeah
Oh, now:
Save your prayers for the future
Say your prayers for the future

[Verse 3]
Oh, God's gone from the cathedral
A different power now holds sway
We can pack them up in the history books
But the Middle Ages won't go away

[Verse 4]
The answer to our prayers is a Valium by the bedside
Now we follow the pundits on TV
Now we put our faith in Science and Progress
And only have sex on our knees

[Verse 5]
And those who are strange are still locked in asylums
And a sterile Pope proscribes the Pill
And those who are rich are still getting richer
And those who are poor still foot the bill

[Verse 6]
And God lives in the underground silos
Hanging on for Judgement Day;
If we don't open our eyes pretty soon
Well, then the Dark Ages will be here to stay
