Textrader... The Pride Of Creation
Det är ingen större hemlighet att herr Tobias Sammet inte är något större fan av kristendomen, och religioner i allmänhet. De två första Avantasia plattorna, The Metal Opera och The Metal Opera Part 2, handlar ju (delvis) om kyrkans maktutövning. Han har även skrivit några låtar i Edguy som är starkt kritiska mot gudadyrkandet. En av dessa är The Pride of Creation från senaste släppet Tinnitus Sanctus. Det roliga med just den här låten är att den är kamouflerad, så man märker inte på en gång hur kritisk den faktiskt är. Om man bara lyssnar på låten utan att tänka så mycket så kan det till och med uppfattas som en hyllningslåt till Gud. Men om man kollar lite närmare så ser man att så inte alls är fallet.
Texten är alltså från låten The Pride of Creation som finns med på Edguy plattan Tinnitus Sanctus, som släpptes i år, och den är skriven av Tobias Sammet.
I can't figure the Lord down in funereal gravity
One finishing touch and the creature is coming alive
As I kneel down and pray
I know God is watching over me
Is He pissing Himself
When He's knocking me out of my stride
And on day number eight
When the sun is about to go down
Here we go, what a show
What a nose for a blow
You're alive said the maker and smiled at the aardvark
You're divine by the grace of the master above
You're alive said the maker and smiled at the aardvark
You're divine by the grace of the master above
Hey Frankenstein are you the one I think you are
[Godfather] If we're divine your are bizarre
I hear you laughing from the loge above
[At my expense for your entertainment]
Hey Lord above why don't your armies ever smile
[Godfather] why don't they ever dress in style
And never share the humor that you surely have
[Creating me for your entertainment]
Why do they have to get married
Before they do what they do
Everyday anyway, when there's hell to pay
You're alive said the maker and smiled at the aardvark
You're divine by the grace of the master above
You're alive said the maker and smiled at the aardvark
You're divine by the grace of the master above
We fold our hands afraid of what we've done
Fear is the key to you - thy kingdome come
Shake your head and have another wine
Don't you almost die laughing wondering why
Running in the dust, running in the dust
Afraid of the hail stones cold as ice
Running in the dust, running in the dust
Straight to the wastelands
We'll never read your signs
Running in the dust, running in the dust
Afraid of tomorrow
Afraid of what we've done
Running in the dust, running in the dust
You're the disciples of the big bad wolf or what
You're alive said the maker and smiled at the aardvark
You're divine by the grace of the master above
You're alive said the maker and smiled at the aardvark
You're divine by the grace of the master above
You're alive, oh you're alive
You're alive, the pride of creation
Oh you're the pride of creation, yes you are
Oh you're the pride of creation
En ganska rolig parodi tycker i alla fall jag!
Och när vi endå är inne på kristendoms temat så vill jag passa på att önska alla läsare en glad påsk! HAHA
