Cheddar Road All-Stars - The Old Reservoir Baptist Church Lyrics

There never was better Show and Tell
Than the old Baptist church where we all went to Hell
The old Reservoir Baptist Church burnt
You forever with lessons well learnt
To start with it was built on a lean
All out of alignment the Devil in between
The Devil in Rezza was what folks believed
They'd be better off believing in Fairy Queens
It felt weird prayin' in that Old Wreck
If you e'a fidgeted they'd be right at your neck
I loved Christ and felt hypnotized
Because they said (that) he was in front of our eyes

But all I seen was real ugly blokes
Determined not to make up any jokes
What they dished up was plenty of pain
And booked Jesus Christ to turn up again!

Flock, you're all gonna burn

The Reverend Stelling
Was about as much fun
As a hornet stinging you fair in the bum
He screeched and he screamed about Rezza going up in flames
He said if you laughed 'you should be ashamed'
What I loved were the words of the hymns
Attractive they were as hot dim sims
I memorized each single Love word
To go straight to hell just never occurred
Such pretty young faces looking for hate

If God is so violent then he isn't me mate
If Jesus was awful forget about him
All of this teachings, just pull the pin!

Flock, you're all gonna burn!
Flock, you're all gonna burn!

The flock were just awful I have to say
Hating the earth in their own crazy way
I loved the wildflowers asleep in the hay
They were all hard those people, as the shell of a cray

They were just all really aunties and uncles
Who had to withstand their vast carbuncles
Who, though life was against them
I hated the way they hauked up their phlegm

My brother John and me ran home so fast
Seen our dad with his trimmers on the path
We were so glad to see him at long legged last
He was much more fun than their paranoid ghost

Flock, you're all gonna burn!
Flock, you're all gonna burn!
There never was better Show and Tell
Than the old Baptist church where we all went to Hell
