Bad Pennies

Chorus
Religion and politics, are evil bedfellows
Two sides of the same coin, it's hard to tell
Where faith ends and power begins
Who's really pulling the strings

Verse
The church and the state, they go hand in hand
Together they rule with an iron hand
But whose interests are they really serving?
The people's needs, or their own deserving?

Verse
But we don't have to be pawns in their game
We can break the chains and reclaim our power
By standing together, we can make a change
Create a world that's more just

Bridge
One preaches love, the other fear
But both use the same tactics, year after year
To keep us divided and under their control
While they line their pockets and sell their souls

Chorus
Religion and politics, evil bedfellows
Two sides of the same coin, just a bad penny
This is where faith ends and struggle begins
We know who's really pulling the strings

Verse
But we ain't gonna be pawns in their game
Break free break the chains and turn away
Shoulder to shoulder, we can make a change
Create a world that's more for all of us.

Chorus
Evil bedfellows, politics and religion
The hold all the cards, they've got all the gold
So now our power starts, and we take this back
Our world, our lives, our strength, our souls
