Song Lyrics

A lie for a lie, but a truth for the truth

Church of women is made out of milk
which their love turns to butter -er -er
Church of women will have you give praise
with a laugh, bark and stutter -er -er
Like us men like us men they are nothing like us men
Men have gargoyles `round their hearts
I`m on my knees but dancing

Want to worship at the church of women
Breathe `em in until my head goes spinning around
Want to worship at the church
Let me worship at the church of women

Church of women is making donations of loving and giving -ing -ing
Church of women performing that miracle raising the living -ing -ing
Like us men like us men will they ever like us men?
Men have thorns around their minds
I`m on my mountain preaching

Want to worship at the church of women
Breathe `em in until my head goes spinning around
Want to worship at the church
Let me worship at the church of women

Lie for a lie, but a truth for the truth
Give `em back their house: the walls, the doors, the floors and roof
And stop tryin` to diet on the wafers and wine and submit we`re in control
Now let`s put things right
Let`s multiply the loves and kisses
`Til we have enough to love and eat forever

Want to worship at the church of women
I want to worship at the church of women now
Breathe `em in until my head goes spinning around
I`ll breathe `em in until my head goes spinning `round
Want to worship at the church
Let me worship at the church of women
Want to worship at the church of women
(Repeat X3 and fade)
