You're such an inspiration for the ways
That I'll never ever choose to be
Oh so many ways for me to show you
How your savior has abandoned you
Fuck your God
Your Lord and your Christ
He did this
Took all you had and
Left you this way
Still you pray, you never stray
Never taste of the fruit
You never thought to question why

It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side
Praise the one who left you
Broken down and paralyzed
He did it all for you
He did it all for you

Oh so many many ways for me to show you
How your dogma has abandoned you
Pray to your Christ, to your god
Never taste of the fruit
Never stray, never break
Never choke on a lie
Even though he's the one who did this to you
You never thought to question why

Not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side
Talk to Jesus Christ
As if he knows the reasons why
He did it all for you
Did it all for you
He did it all for you

    On the first couple pages, so many people were bitching about how "Fuck your god, your lord, your christ" was sooooo offensive to Christians (and as a religion that has killed for their beliefs, I think it's OK to offend as many of them as we can, but that's another topic for another day). But you know what, the line isn't against christains. It's against any religion. Few people don't know the true definition of the word "christ".

    Contrary to popular belief, it is not Jesus's last name. The word "christ" actually means "messiah"..so basically Jesus Christ means "Jesus the Messiah", it's not his name. Of course, when we hear the word "christ", we associate it with Jesus. "Fuck your christ" means fuck YOUR messiah. Whether it's Jesus, Mohammed, Moses, Buddah or whatever the hell else you believe. "Fuck your christ" means something completely different than "Fuck Jesus" would. Obviously, one can draw their own conclusions and figure out which christ Maynard is talking about, but before any more bible thumpers get their panties in a bunch, the line "fuck your god, your lord, your christ" is NOT targeted towards your religion or any other specific religion, just religion in general.
