[Verse 1]
Why are you religious? Question motivation
Ticket to some afterlife enjoyment heaven
Vestal virgin paradise pleasure celestial
Freedom from old age, disease, eternal blissful?
[Chorus]
No! What you want
Celebrate God
Understand hand
Here and now love
[Verse 2]
Why are you religious? Question motivation
Seek redemption from temptation sinful fallen
Cosy certain self deception cheque post dated
Free from birth and death samsara soul nirvana?
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Why are you religious? Question motivation
Crystallise your us and them for or against sense
Make believe God on your side, you chosen people
Self deceive your land assigned by divine decree?
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 4]
Why are you religious? Question motivation
Promised land of many mansion situation
Fire and brimstone out of reach for true believer
Liberation guaranteed to faithful keeper?
[Repeat Chorus]
