Anvil - Thumb Hang lyrics

Thumbs will twist, can you resist? Beware the names on the inquisitor's list Trial by fire, the holy desire Religion and rule can be so cruel [Chorus] All in the name of the cross Thumbhang Thumbhang Word of the Pope, the loss of all hope Manipulation is here, governed by fear [Chorus] Mounted on horses, inquisitors ride At the end of their spears the heathens died Forced to confess they prayed as the lied Prayed as they lied Tortured and prisoned and sentenced to die When it's the Church you weren't meant, meant to defy [?], state of control Money to steal, government's deal Tortured and shamed, who could be blamed? Using the cross, the lives that were lost All in the name of God Thumbhang [Repeat x5]
