Lyrics of Take Me to Church - The Voice Performance by We' McDonald
verse
My lover's got humour
She's the giggle at a funeral
Knows everybody's disapproval
I should've worshipped her sooner
verse
If the heavens ever did speak
She's the last true mouthpiece
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
Fresh poison each week
pre-chorus
I was born sick
But I love it
Command me to be well
A-a-amen, amen, amen
chorus
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
verse
If I'm a pagan of the good times
My lover's the sunlight
To keep the goddess on my side
She demands a sacrifice
To drain the whole sea
Get something shiny
verse
Something meaty for the main course
That's a fine looking high horse
What you got in the stable?
We've a lot of starving faithful
pre-chorus
That looks tasty
That looks plenty
This is hungry work
chorus
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
chorus
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
bridge
No masters or kings when the ritual begins
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
bridge
Only then I am human
Only then I am clean
A-a-amen, amen, amen
chorus
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
outro
Take me to chu-u-u-u-rch
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
Take me to chu-u-u-u-u-u-u-rch
