Lyrics
thieves in the temple (Mt.21:12-16) we've got thieves in the temple! we've got thieves in the temple! we've got thieves, thieves, thieves in the temple! come out! come out! come out! we've got thieves in the temple! we've got thieves in the temple! we've got thieves, thieves, thieves in the temple! come out! come out! come out! come out! look at what they're do'in; purposely destroy'in; they're undercover; get'tin over on the "never-know'in"! got that innocent look; what's underneath is a crook! back stab'bin; tithe grab'bin; & they're run'nin amuck! (repeat chorus) they don't got a conscience; but use plenty influence; conniv'in; misguid'in; full of disobedience! they don't even think it's...cheat'in the innocent! full of greed; wan'na bleed til there's not a thing left! (repeat chorus) it's only organized crime; all covered up in a shrine; they are patient with their wait'in til u think they're devine! it's all 2 amaz'in; see thru their moneychang'in; it's a scheme 2 redeem those poor & in depression! (repeat choruse - twice)
