Excellent song from an excellent album. Chuck sings of hypocrisy in the church, for the sake of clarity: simony. The subject of the song uses his position in the church (minister) for his own self benefit despite the very teachings of Christianity. "Preach the good word
Speak no more, prepare to burn" signifies the man's eternal punishment, on earth and in hell, for his vile acts of simony.
