Cancer Lyrics by Mansun

Cancer Lyrics

    My book of mormon
    Wrapped in turin
    And it seems inferior and jittery
    You preach elastic
    To your jagged flock
    In an eerie passion for self-flattery

    I'm emotionally raped by jesus
    I'm emotionally raped by jesus now
    But i'm still here
    Yes, somehow i'm still here

    What now of my faith
    Just a desperate exercise to limit pain
    I am weak
    I'm emotional and sensitive and frail
    In need of some love
    Pull the cancer from the vatican's own state
    Uninformed
    You will harbour those who nurtured europe's war
    Keep turning my cheek
    In a fragile state of violence left me weak
    No guilt
    Hold your people in disdain and steal their grace

    I need replacement
    To feel redefined
    And it's just this matter of identity
    You preach elastic
    To your jagged flock
    It's an eerie passion for self-flattery

    Emotionally i'm wrapped in shame
    Emotionally i feel i'm raped
    Oh, emotionally in chains

    What now of my faith
    It's a desperate exercise to limit pain
    No guilt
    Hold your people in disdain and steal their grace
    Keep turning my cheek
    I'm emotional and sensitive and weak
    Uninformed
    You have harboured those who nurtured europe's war
