Their Gods Do Not Have Surgeons - The Mountain Goats

They came like beasts who’d tasted blood

First a few and then the flood

Coursing over hill and dale

Wet paw prints on their bloody trail

Return the peace you took from me

Give me back my community

Show us the goodwill you were shown

But leave us alone

And restore the temple of Isis at Memphis

Yeah, restore the temple of Isis at Memphis

Their hunger like a worm inside them

No sacred place could be denied them

They who talk all day of beauty

Call all the plain things dirty

Melted holes in celluloid

Give me back what you’ve destroyed

You who come demanding proof

Let your God rebuild this roof

And restore the temple of Isis at Memphis

Yeah, restore the temple of Isis at Memphis

Make it whole again if you can

Stand in the smoke and say some prayers

Wave your hand

And restore the temple of Isis at Memphis

Restore the temple of Isis at Memphis
