Sunday School Chainsaw

[Verse 1] Bible in a brown bag Flask in the front pew Deacon got a side hustle Cookin' in the church loo Stained glass halos Sprayed with the mold bloom Choir kids vape clouds Right in the back room Folded hands Hide the track marks Suit and tie Cover claw marks Pastor got a grin Like a crowbar bend Says "love your brother" While he robs your friends [Chorus] Sunday School Chainsaw Cut my halo crooked Say I'm born again But my sins stay lookin' Praise in the front While the back door’s crooked Sunday School Chainsaw I see right through it (hey!) [Verse 2] Granny in the white dress Swear she never did dirt But she buried three men Deep under that red earth Cross on the hill Made of rebar, rust Whole town kneel To the land they trust Sheriff at communion Got mud on his boot sole Tithes pay tabs At the jukebox road hole Bless this mess With a gas can grin Strike one match Watch the hymns burn thin (burn!) [Chorus] Sunday School Chainsaw Cut my halo crooked Say I'm born again But my sins stay lookin' Sing that grace While the graveyard’s booked and Sunday School Chainsaw I see right through it (yeah!) [Bridge] (Go) hands up If you ever got sold that lie (Go) head down While they pick your pockets dry (Go) stomp hard Til the floorboards crack and cry (Go) scream loud Let the false gods hear you fight [Chorus] Sunday School Chainsaw Cut my halo crooked Carve those pretty words In the bark of the wicked Pray on my knees But I won’t be silenced Sunday School Chainsaw Turn faith into defiance (hey!)
