john the revelator

depeche mode (赶时髦/尖端流行合唱团)



john the revelator

put him in a elevator

take him up to the highest high

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

and put him on the stand

let us hear his alibis

by claiming god as his only rock

he\'s stealing a god from the israelite

stealing a god from a muslim, too

there is only one god through and through



seven lies, mulitplied by seven, multiplied by seven again

seven angels with seven trumpets

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



seven lies, mulitplied by seven, multiplied by seven again

seven angels with seven trumpets

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

john the revelator

bye-bye

john the revelator

bye-bye
