En Nombre De Dios [English translation]

If you've lost your faith

and you've made a pact with the devil1

let your soul be at peace

'cause I'll take care of your body.

Through the pain

you'll vanquish Lucifer

(but) first you must accept

that being a lesbian is a disease.

Don't leave out the details, tell me

how you both did it

and afterwards I'll give you absolution

naked in my bedroom.

Through torture you'll be forgiven

accept Christ and die in the name of God.

Die in the name of God!!

If you want to confess

your moral deviation

that you're a homosexual

and Satan's between your legs.

You're gonna burn at the stake

the fire will purify

every sin that your body has committed

the bonfire will make love to you.

You'll condemn yourself through lust

Only we fuck in the name of God.

If you've lost your faith

and you've made a pact with the devil

for being gay or bisexual

the Holy Office2 will exorcise you.

With an act of faith

although cruel, is for the best

I'll serve as punishment for

those who don't follow the doctrine of faith.

Poverty, obedience and chastity

must always be followed

unless you're the Pope, a King,

Bishop or part of the Opus Dei.

Do as they say, not as I do

we've got money, power, sex in the name of God.

Always in the name of God!!!

We sell papal bulls3

we buy your dreams

we kill in the name of God.
