Echoes Of Evil

<br>[Music by Wagner/Schroeder, lyrics by Wagner]<br><br>I tell you Jesus Christ was just an ordinary man<br>But he was wise, much wiser than the rest<br><br>The few to see wrote tales `bout him but time perverted<br>it all<br>The banner`s changed, the world ain`t changed at all<br>Forced to fight for law and order<br>In the name of God to slaughter<br><br>Living in this world could be a life in hell<br>They`re around everywhere, can`t you tell?<br><br>Echoes of evil<br><br>You know, they don`t know what it is when they talk<br>`bout the law<br>The rights are wrong when only riches rule<br>You hear them say we`re civilized but still blacks are<br>slaves<br>When money talks they won`t hear all the cries<br><br>Forced to fight with law and order<br>In the name of God to slaughter<br><br>Dying at the front is tradition, you know<br>Just like fathers and grandfathers did<br><br>Echoes of evil<br><br>We`re men - we`re bound to fail but we can learn it<br>The ones who never face it will stay blind<br>We gained too much by science but we can`t use it<br>Prepare your mind to stop before it`s to late<br><br>The preacher`s done the rites of Christ for a thousand<br>years or more<br>Believes in personified gods<br>Does he fear waking up to see it`s not so easy<br>Opposing good `n` bad as he did?<br><br>Forced to fight with law and order<br>In the name of God to slaughter<br><br>What is religion - shit in your brain<br>A blade of straw in oceans of life<br>Don`t follow leaders, no matter what side<br>Though it`s harder to live your ideals<br><br>There are echoes of evil
