Through tunnel vision watch him rant and rave
He says there's life beyond the grave
He lost his slice of the eternal cake
Well, God's in His Heaven and He's on the take
That's nice (that's nice) that's neat (that's neat)
It's bitter and it's sweet, is it trick and treat
You're talkin' fast but you're preaching feast - now
Bits and pieces I remember slightly, it was a long time ago
We'd have our hot and holy conversations
And solve the problems of the drunken world
Now a clerical collar chokes at your convictions
You strangle slowly for the old addiction
It's Heaven's army and you're so professional
But listen closely to this closed confessional
That's nice (that's nice), it's neat (it's neat)
It's bitter and sweet, is it trick and treat
You're talkin' fast but you're preaching feast now
We'd take a recipe for religionAnd bring it to the theological kitchen
Mix it up to make our own concoction
Believed in God but you'd shake a fist at him
And Ray, does it seem holy, hey Ray-ay, does it seem hard
And Ray-ay, it isn't that easy - now-ow
Oh-hoh-hoh, oh-hoh-hoh, oh-hoh-hoh
Oh-hoh-hoh, oh-hoh-hoh, oh-hoh-hoh
You said you spoke to God and asked a question
You were wonderin' what's the use of it all
He said everybody does what they want to
Provided that it's true, that's all
He said, hey Big G you said there's my problem
I'm not so sure 'bout what's true
He said I'll let you in on my big secret, Ray
The final truth is - there is no truth, and
Na-na-na-na, bop shoo wop shoo wop
Na-na-na-na, Oh-hey-yeah
Na-na-na-na, bop shoo wop shoo wop-ac
I Boomtown Rats sono una band rock irlandese formatasi a Dublino nel 1975. Il gruppo è guidato dal frontman e compositore Bob Geldof, noto anche per la sua attività umanitaria. La musica dei Boomtown Rats si caratterizza per un sound punk-rock energico e melodico, con testi spesso satirici e politici. Tra i loro successi più famosi figurano "I Don't Like Mondays", "Rat Trap" e "The Boomtown Rats". Nel 1984, Geldof ha fondato Band Aid, un supergruppo di artisti britannici e irlandesi che ha registrato il brano "Do They Know It's Christmas?" per raccogliere fondi in aiuto della carestia in Etiopia. I Boomtown Rats hanno venduto milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo e sono considerati uno dei gruppi rock più influenti degli anni '70 e '80.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
