The Killing Stone Lyrics
I heard a preacher man speaking on the radio
Remember thinking that I’d like to tell him where to go
Go back to that book that you’ve been waving around
Open it up, and go to that part about
You without sin, pick up that stone
You without sin, pick up that stone
He’s turning it over, to the other side
He’s turning it over now, ‘cause now you can’t hide
All that lies beneath, all the lies beneath
The killing stone, oh
Saw another fella talking on the TV show
Trying to tell me how to live and just how I should vote
He says he believes in the sanctity of life
100,000 died
Tell me are you sanctified
Now you without sin, pick up that stone
You without sin, pick up that stone
He’s turning it over, to the other side
He’s turning it over now, ‘cause you can’t hide
All that lies beneath, all the lies beneath
The killing stone, oooohhhh
We’re all looking for redemption
But is it for our souls
You without sin, pick up that stone
You without sin, pick up that stone
You without sin, pick up that stone
You without sin, pick up that stone
He’s turning it over, to the other side
He’s turning it over, turning it over now ‘cause you can’t hide
All that lies beneath, all the lies beneath
You can’t hide beneath
The killing stone, oh, oh, oh
Killing stone
Oh no, you’re down on
(The killing stone)
Stone, stone, oh
(The killing stone)
Stone
Remember thinking that I’d like to tell him where to go
Go back to that book that you’ve been waving around
Open it up, and go to that part about
You without sin, pick up that stone
You without sin, pick up that stone
He’s turning it over, to the other side
He’s turning it over now, ‘cause now you can’t hide
All that lies beneath, all the lies beneath
The killing stone, oh
Saw another fella talking on the TV show
Trying to tell me how to live and just how I should vote
He says he believes in the sanctity of life
100,000 died
Tell me are you sanctified
Now you without sin, pick up that stone
You without sin, pick up that stone
He’s turning it over, to the other side
He’s turning it over now, ‘cause you can’t hide
All that lies beneath, all the lies beneath
The killing stone, oooohhhh
We’re all looking for redemption
But is it for our souls
You without sin, pick up that stone
You without sin, pick up that stone
You without sin, pick up that stone
You without sin, pick up that stone
He’s turning it over, to the other side
He’s turning it over, turning it over now ‘cause you can’t hide
All that lies beneath, all the lies beneath
You can’t hide beneath
The killing stone, oh, oh, oh
Killing stone
Oh no, you’re down on
(The killing stone)
Stone, stone, oh
(The killing stone)

This is a great protest song. Preists, religious figures, etc. talk about the sanctity of life, but apparently it only applies to feelow christians. Jerry Falwell gets on tv after 911 as says" Kill them all(iraqis) in the name of Jesus. When and how did Jesus' messages of peace and tolerance become so altered.
