Lyrics

Rippin' Me Off

[Intro]

I must, believe!

I must, believe

I must, believe

I must, believe

I must

Go go go

Go go go

Go go go

Go go go

[Verse 1]

They say Jesus is doing nothing

They say that evolution took His place

There's no God who created the world

And no Savior for the human race

[Verse 2]

They say God is powerless

He laughs aloud as we cry in pain

It's just a part of His sick, sick humor

Forcing us to appreciate

[Chorus]

You say that God is dead, but you're rippin' me off!

You can't infect my mind with your vanity!

You say that God is dead, but you're rippin' me off!

You can't infect my mind with your vanity!

You're rippin' me off!

You're rippin' me off!

You're rippin' me off!

You're rippin' me off!

[Post-Chorus]

Go go go

Go go go

Go go go

Go go go

I must, believe

I must, believe

[Verse 3]

They say God doesn't even exist

We made Him up just to numb our pain

They can't believe in a loving God

Who doesn't believe in atheists!

[Chorus]

You say that God is dead, but you're rippin' me off!

You can't infect my mind with your vanity!

You say that God is dead, but you're rippin' me off!

You can't infect my mind with your vanity!

You're rippin' me off!

You're rippin' me off!

You're rippin' me off!

You're rippin' me off!

[Post-Chorus]

Go go go

Go go go

Go go go

Go go go

[Bridge]

We take too much

We take too much

We take too much

We take too much

[Chrous]

You say that God is dead, but you're rippin' me off!

You can't infect my mind with your vanity!

You say that God is dead, but you're rippin' me off!

You can't infect my mind with your vanity!

You say that God is dead, but you're rippin' me off!

You can't infect my mind with your vanity!

You're rippin' me off!

You're rippin' me off!

You're rippin' me off!

You're rippin' me off!
