Are you ready to face your greatest mistake:
the one that sealed humanity's fate?
When you resisted the devil's temptations
You gave every good man affliction
You excluded us from redemption
and doomed humanity to death and destruction
You chose freedom and virtue
But you misjudged human nature:
The majority of men can't cope with
what you gave them
We'll lead humanity
down the same old trail:
But every man will be
blithe, along the way
blithe and ignorant
Oh Jesus, we improved Thy work
and founded it upon
miracle and mystery
and authority
For anyone who can appease a man's troubled conscience
can take his freedom away from him.
