The Temple lyrics
[MONEYLENDERS/MERCHANTS]
Roll on up, for my price is down
Come on in for the best in town
Take your pick of the finest wine
Lay your bets on this bird of mine
Roll on up, for my price is down
Come on in for the best in town
Take your pick of my finest wine
Lay your bets on this bird of mine
Name your price; I got everything
Come and buy, it's all going fast
Borrow cash on the finest terms
Hurry now while stocks still last
{Alternative first verse}
Roll on up, Jerusalem
Come on in, Jerusalem
Sunday, here we go again
Live in me, Jerusalem
Here you live, Jerusalem
Here you breathe, Jerusalem
While your temple still survives
You, at least, are still alive
I got things you won't believe
Name your pleasure, I will sell
I can fix your wildest needs
I got heaven and I got hell
Roll on up, for my price is down
Come on in for the best in town
Take your pick of the finest wine
Lay your bets on this bird of mine
What you see is what you get
No one's been disappointed yet
Don't be scared, give me a try
There is nothing you can't buy
Name your price, I got everything
Hurry it's going fast
Borrow cash on the finest terms
Hurry now while stocks still last
[JESUS]
My temple should be a house of prayer
But you have made it a den of thieves
Get out! Get out!
