John the Revelator
Put him in a elevator
Take him up to the high side
Take him up to the top where the mountains stop
Let him tell his book of lies

John the Revelator
He’s a smooth operator
It’s time we cut him down to size
Take him by the hand
Put him on the stand
Let us sue his alibis

For claiming God as his only rock
For stealing a god from the Israelite
Stealing a god from a Muslim, too
There is only one god through and through

Civilized ...
Seven angels, seven [bad word] 
Send them home on the morning train
Well who’s that shouting?
John the Revelator!
All he ever gives us is pain
Well who’s that shouting?
John the Revelator!
He should bow his head in shame

Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
Bye-Bye.
