Seduction Of The Innocent

He always wears his bible belt

The collar under his head

It's like a noose around his neck



His sandaled feet don't touch the ground

Ears don't hear a sound

Seduction of the innocent



Everybody thinks there's always a reason

Need a reason to cry

You kiss the hand of the man for all seasons

And don't know why



Say it friend, if you had to do it all over again

Would you know the trickery that he's prayin?



The padre looks well fed

Remember what the good book said

Vultures circle overhead



Whatever gets you through the night

Friends sing to clear your mind

Seduction of the innocent



Everybody thinks there's always a reason

Need a reason to cry

You kiss the hand of a man for all seasons

And don't know why



Say it friend, if you had to do it all over again

Would you know the trickery that he's prayin'?

Everybody thinks there's always a reason

Need a reason to cry

You kiss the hand of the man for all seasons

And don't know why



Say it friend, if you had to do it all over again

Would you know the trickery that he's prayin'?
