Hypocrite 

You covet your neighbor, you lie and you curse

You judge him before you discover his worth

You fight and demolish the things others earn

And then, you go to church! 

You act as if you have devout beliefs

You don't even practice the things that you preach 

With log in your eyes, you see everyone’s beam

But then, you go to church!

Like Cain hated Abel your brother you abhor

You plastered the bloodstain on Joseph's new robe 

But then you behave like you're holier than thou

Oh yes, you go to church!

With your lips you claim to honor the lord

But your heart is filthy; your tongue is a sword

You bow before idols, you lust and you hoard

But yes, you go to church!

Reciting the Bible Genesis to the end.

Perform all your deeds to be counted by men

Always so quick to expose others' sins

Because you go to church!

You ignore God’s commandments and cause others pain

Like Achan you’re guarding your dishonest gain

It’s your wish to be called Rabbi by men

Oh well, you go to church!

Woe unto your kind Pharisees and Scribes

In whited sepulchers some corpses you hide

For pretence you make sure your prayers are long

And then, you go to church!

The crowd never misses your offering and tithes

You’re Judas! betrayer of innocent lives

Your value equates to thirty silver coins

But well, you go to church!
