Red Hot Chili Peppers - Shallow Be Thy Game Lyrics

Complimentary "Shallow Be Thy Game" Ringtone

I was not created 
In the likeness of a fraud 
Your hell is something scary 
I prefer a loving god 
We are not the center 
Of this funny universe 
And what is worse 
I do not serve 
In fear of such a curse 

Shallow be thy game 
2000 years look in the mirror 
You play the game of shame 
And tell your people live in fear 

A rival to the way you see 
The bible let him be 
I'm a threat to your survival 
And your control company 

Chorus : 
You'll never burn me 
You'll never burn me 
I will be your heretic, yeah 
You can't contain me 
I am the power free 
Truth belongs to everybody 

To anyone who's listenin' 
You're not born into sin 
The guilt they try and give you 
Puke it in the nearest bin 

Missionary maddness 
Sweep up culture with a broom 
Trashing ancient ways 
Is par for the course 
It's fucking rude 

To think that you're above 
The laws of nature what a joke 
Purple sasfies feeding masses 
Smoke on which to choke 

I might be a monkey 
When it comes to being holy 
Fundamental hatred 
Get down on your knees and.. 

Chorus(X2)
