Should the Bible be Banned Lyrics by McCarthy

That’s All Very Well But...

1988

My name is Dave
I killed my brother
I whacked an axe through his head
On the hottest day of the year
My blood was boiling
I said, "You're dying!"
And so, the blood flowed
I'm in jail
The press were eager to question me
"How could you do such a thing?"
My father hated me
He always took my brother's side
For Christmas, he would get a car
And I'd be given 50p
All alone in my room, just a bible
Of Cain and Abel I'd read
How my heart bled for Cain, he had problems
But God ignored them, it made me so mad
I'm in jail
When the story broke
Placards read
"Now should the bible be banned?"
I'm in jail
When the story broke
Placards read
"Now should the bible be banned?"
The Home Secretary
Is looking closely into it
Could a copycat killer
Copy the Book of Genesis?
Should the bible be banned
To keep the peace?
Should the bible be banned
To keep the peace?
Should the bible be banned
To keep the peace?
Should the bible be banned
To keep the peace?
Should the bible be banned
To keep the peace?
Should the bible be banned
To keep the peace?
Should the bible be banned
To keep the peace?
Should the bible be banned
To keep the peace?
