"[Verse 1]
My lover`s got humour
She`s the giggle at a funeral
Knows everybody`s disapproval
I should`ve worshipped her sooner
If the heavens ever did speak
She`s the last true mouthpiece
Every Sunday`s getting more bleak
A fresh poison each week
""We were born sick""
You heard them say it
My church offers no absolutes
She tells me
""worship in the bedroom""
The only heaven I`ll be sent to
Is when I`m alone with you
I was born sick, but I love it
Command me to be well

[Pre-Chorus]
Amen, Amen, Amen

[Chorus]
Take me to church
I`ll worship like a dog at
the shrine of your lies
I`ll tell you my sins so (and)
you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that (my) deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church
I`ll worship like a dog
at the shrine of your lies
I`ll tell you my sins so (and)
you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that (my) deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life

[Verse 2]
If I`m a pagan of the good times
My lover`s the sunlight
To keep the goddess on my side
She demands a sacrifice
Drain the whole sea
Get something shiny
Something meaty for the main course
That`s a fine looking high horse
What you got in the stable?
We`ve a lot of starving faithful
That looks tasty
That looks plenty
This is hungry work

[Chorus]
Take me to church
I`ll worship like a dog at
the shrine of your lies
I`ll tell you my sins so (and)
you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that (my) deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church
I`ll worship like a dog at
the shrine of your lies
I`ll tell you my sins so (and)
you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that (my) deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life

[Bridge]
No masters or kings
when the ritual begins
There is no sweeter
innocence than our gentle sin
In the madness and soil
of that sad earthly scene
Only then I am human
Only then I am clean

[Pre-Chorus]
Amen, Amen, Amen

[Chorus]
Take me to church
I`ll worship like a dog at
the shrine of your lies
I`ll tell you my sins so (and)
you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that (my) deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church
I`ll worship like a dog at
the shrine of your lies
I`ll tell you my sins so (and)
you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that (my) deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life"

Shes the giggle at a funeral
Knows everybodys disapproval
I shouldve worshiped her sooner
If the heavens ever did speak
