[Chonny Jash - Hokum All Ye Faithful lyrics]
Tell me, have you heard the one about the
Prophet with the perfect soul?
A heavenly bastard with his
Own slasher flick
The greatest fairy tale ever told
Weekly he receives a kneeling ovation
From a sleepy nation
They're swallowing the old routine
The holy saltine
And backwash from the cup of salvation
Have you heard the legend sweeping the land?
They're saying we all sprung
From some invisible man
And when he finished up he took a little rest
And he's been resting ever since, I guess
Tell me
Have you heard the one about the young
Man who died for your sins?
You'd think he would've learned his lesson
Not to mess with us
And yet they say he's gonna come again
He mighta hit a ripe
Old age if a disciple had not failed him
Broken, betrayed and lost, he lay
Alone on the cross
While the Easter Bunny pounded the nails in
Have you heard the legend sweeping the land?
They're saying we all sprung
From some invisible man
And when he finished up he took a little rest
And he's been resting ever since, I guess
Tell me, have you heard the one about
The healer who could resurrect?
They say that when he rose from the
Dead, he had a flattened head
Black boots and two bolts in his neck
Hokum all ye faithful
That's the whole fable as I was told it
Honestly I'm halfway jealous of the gullible
Zealots who believe this
Unbelievable bullshit
Have you heard the legend sweeping the land?
They're saying we all sprung
From some invisible man
And when he finished up he took a little rest
And he's been resting ever since, I guess
Have you heard his tales of sorrow and sin?
It's said that they all end
As quickly as they begin
And if you've failed or
Ignored his last request
Oh you'd best be prepared to repent
Prophet with the perfect soul?
A heavenly bastard with his
Own slasher flick
The greatest fairy tale ever told
Weekly he receives a kneeling ovation
From a sleepy nation
They're swallowing the old routine
The holy saltine
And backwash from the cup of salvation
Have you heard the legend sweeping the land?
They're saying we all sprung
From some invisible man
And when he finished up he took a little rest
And he's been resting ever since, I guess
Tell me
Have you heard the one about the young
Man who died for your sins?
You'd think he would've learned his lesson
Not to mess with us
And yet they say he's gonna come again
He mighta hit a ripe
Old age if a disciple had not failed him
Broken, betrayed and lost, he lay
Alone on the cross
While the Easter Bunny pounded the nails in
Have you heard the legend sweeping the land?
They're saying we all sprung
From some invisible man
And when he finished up he took a little rest
And he's been resting ever since, I guess
Tell me, have you heard the one about
The healer who could resurrect?
They say that when he rose from the

Black boots and two bolts in his neck
Hokum all ye faithful
