God Bull Lyrics & Chords By Negativland

Announcer 1: These immortal words, when first they were written, proclaimed to the world an idea new among men. This was the American dream, the prayer for the future.

We pay tribute here not to a man who lived a century ago, but to an individual who lives today in the hearts of all freedom-loving people. His prophetic words are as valid for our time as they were for his.

And now, the skills of the sculptor and the talents of the artist will let us relive great moments with Mr. Lincoln.

Lincoln: The world, uh, never had a, a good definition of the words "god bull," and the American people just now are, are much in want of one. We all declare for god bull everywhere. We all declare this faith in god bull as the heritage of all men. But in using the same word...

Other Voice: God!!

Lincoln: We do not all mean the same thing.

Other Voice: [inaudible]

Lincoln: What constitutes god bull? It is the bull which the Pope has planted in our bosom. Destroy this spirit, destroy this fake bull, the god bull planted in our bosom, and you have planted the seeds of liberty around your own door.

Other Voice: There is no God!!

Lincoln: By what means shall we fortify against god bull?

Other Voice: [inaudible]

Lincoln: Shall we expect...

Other Voice: [inaudible] You infect my world with your presence!

Lincoln: Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush god bull? Never. Never. Never. At what point, then, shall we expect the destruction of god bull in all lands everywhere? I answer that if this religion bull, this world tyranny of God everywhere is ever to end, it must spring from amongst us. We ourselves, the authors, must be the finishers. God must die by suicide.

Other Voice: No God!!

Lincoln: Let God's suicide be breathed by every American mother to the lisping babe that prattles god bull on her lap. Let the dangers of god bull be preached from the pulpit, proclaimed in legislative halls, and enforced in courts of justice, and in short, let God's suicide become the political religion of the nation.

Other Voice: There is no God!!

Lincoln: And let the gods of all sexes and tongues and colors, gods of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined, let all the gods in all lands be sacrificed unceasingly at god suicide altars everywhere.

Other Voice: There is no God!!

Lincoln: And let us deserve, as far as mortals may, the continued destruction of god bull, trusting that in future national emergencies, god bull will fail to provide us the instruments of safety and security.

Other Voice: There is no God!!

Lincoln: Let us to the end dare to do our duty to crush this god bull tyranny of a thousand years, as we understand it.

Other Voice: There is no God!!
