Watching them come and go   The templars and the saracens   They're traveling the holy land   Opening telegrams oh ho      Torture comes and torture goes   Knights who'd give you anything   They bear the cross of coeur de leon   Salvation for the mirror blind oh ho      But if you pray all your sins are hooked upon the sky   Pray and the heathen lie will disappear   Prayers they hide the saddest view   (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien)   And your prayers they break the sky in two   (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien)      Thinking of a different time   Palestine a modern problem   Bounty and your wealth in land   Terror in a best laid plan      Watching them come and go   Tomorrows and the yesterdays oh ho   Christians and the unbelievers   Hanging by the cross and nail oh ho      But if you pray all your sins are hooked upon the sky   Pray and the heathen lie will disappear oh ho   Prayers they hide the saddest view   (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien)   And your prayers they break the sky in two   (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien)   You pray till the break of dawn   (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien)   And you'll believe you're loving the alien   (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien)   Believeing the strangest things (loving the alien)
