lyrics

Who is the holy man and what does he believe?
That we must cover up our bodies
We must show humility
I believe my body is beautiful and it belongs to me

What makes a holy man? What does he decree?
There is an order to this place and he's atop the hierarchy
I believe there's no one above me and no one underneath

But I'm a sinner I'm a whore
I'm rotten to the core and you're the holy man
It's to you that He confides
You have god on your side
And you're the holy man
Yeah you're the holy man

I hear the holy man
He's calling for our souls
That we must kneel, beg forgiveness like it's something that we owe
I believe our only stipulation is the kindness that we show

But I'm a sinner I'm a whore
I'm rotten to the core and you're the Holy Man
It's to you that He confides
You have god on your side
And you're the Holy Man
Yeah you're the holy man
