Tasmin Archer - Lords of the New Church lyrics

Here's the man whose voice speaks for everyone And whose actions touch the lives of us all He rose with energy and style Shake my hand, kiss my child Sway us all with your smile He readily accepts acclaim But soon forgets that he came From the back streets like them So we pray to the east We pray to the west And we see the gods of the new church As they undertake their vow Tell me who can save us now? Save us from the lords of the new church Don't say no Here's the man some believe is a visionary Here's the man who is driven by greed He made a fortune overnight In a deal that he knew Was too good to be true As he bends the rules of play Becomes obsessed with the game Has to go all the way They feast and they fly While we pay the real price But what price do we place on life?
