[Intro]

[Verse 1:

Candles, cards & joss-sticks
he wears a healing stone
and converses in sayings

he got from books on loan

forgiving me my poor mind

with a hallelujah-smile
denying his ?divinity?
in a perfectly divine style


[Bridge 1a:]
True enlightened minds never scream & shout

never touch the subject nor speak about

[Bridge 1b:]

Bruised but sane,
knowing it remains the same


[Chorus 1:]
A blasphemian charlatan; a sectarian guru, ya
a charlatan, -blasphemia!

A blasphemian charlatan; a sectarian guru, ya
a charlatan, -blasphemia!
a master of grandiloquence,

manipulating delinquent
just one step from a sectarian crime
at any time

beware of his time

[Verse 2:]

his tarot-cards have spoken
your friends are of the evil kind
and loving your own genus

stands for a lofty mind

his past life will elicit

he was not a saint at all
merely outcast seeking safety
behind esoteric walls


[Bridge 2a:]
they who talk astral travelling:

ten to one they don't fit in their skin

[Bridge 2b:]

bruised but sane
knowing it remains the same


[Chorus 2:]
A blasphemian charlatan; a sectarian guru, ya
a charlatan, -blasphemia!

A blasphemian charlatan; a sectarian guru, ya
a charlatan, -blasphemia!
a master of grandiloquence,

manipulating delinquent
just one step from a sectarian crime
at any time

beware of his type

[Esoteric solo]


[Bridge 3a:]
he who speaks too much in esoterics

injures the truth's credibility

[Bridge 3b:]

bruised but sane
knowing it remains the same


[Chorus 2:]
A blasphemian charlatan; a sectarian guru, ya
a charlatan, -blasphemia!

A blasphemian charlatan; a sectarian guru, ya
a charlatan, -blasphemia!
a master of grandiloquence,
manipulating delinquent
just one step from a sectarian crime

at any time
beware of his type!

[esoteric finale!]
