Seven lies multiplied by seven

Johnturn

Depeche Mode – John The Revelator (UNKLE Re-Construction)

 

John the Revelator, put him in an elevator

Take him up to the highest high

Take him up to the top where the mountains stop

Let him tell his book of lies

 

John the Revelator, he’s a smooth operator

It’s time we cut him down to size

Take him by the hand and put him on the stand

Let us hear his alibis

 

By claiming God as his holy right

He’s stealing a God from the Israelites

Stealing a God from the Muslim too

There is only one God through and through

 

Seven lies multiplied by seven

Multiplied by seven again

Seven angels with seven trumpets

Send them home on the morning train

 

Well, who’s that shouting

John the Revelator

All he ever gives us is pain

Well, who’s that shouting

John the Revelator

He should bow his head in shame

 

By and by

By and by

By and by

By and by

 

Seven lies multiplied by seven

Multiplied by seven again

Seven angels with seven trumpets

Send them home on the morning train

 

Well, who’s that shouting

John the Revelator

All he ever gives us is pain

Well, who’s that shouting

John the Revelator

He should bow his head in shame

 

By and by

By and by (John the Revelator)

By and by (John the Revelator)

By and by (John the Revelator)
