From the moment I could walk, my father took my hand
Led me up the path to the goblin in the garden
Ah, the goblin in the garden
And then in school, the teachers sat me down
To learn the scriptures of the goblin in the garden
Ah, the goblin in the garden
Beat your slave, oppress your wife
And stone to death the queers as well
Be sure to fill your days, singing songs of praise
For if you don't believe, you'll roast in hell
Ah, you touch me deep inside
I'm so blessed to feel your loving rod
No matter what I do, I'll be absolved by you
So long as I believe in god
I killed a man, then took his wife
In the name of the goblin in the garden
But I don't care 'cos when I die
I'll get my reward from the goblin in the garden
Ah, the goblin in the garden
