The Paper Chase - God Is In The House Lyrics - Xiu Xiu

We've laid the cables and the wires 

We've split the wood and stoked 

the fires 

We've lit our town so there is no 

Place for crime to hide 

Our little church is painted white 

And in the safety of the night 

We all go quiet as a mouse 

For the word is out 

God is in the house 

God is in the house 

God is in the house 

No cause for worry now 

God is in the house 

Moral sneaks in the White House 

Computer geeks in the school house 

Drug freaks in the crack house 

We don't have that stuff here 

We have a tiny little Force 

But we need them of course 

For the kittens in the trees 

And at night we are on our knees 

As quiet as a mouse 

For God is in the house 

God is in the house 

God is in the house 

And no one's left in doubt 

God is in the house 

Homos roaming the streets in packs 

Queer-bashers with tire-jacks 

Lesbian counter-attacks 

That stuff is for the big cities 

Our town is very pretty 

We have a pretty little square 

We have a woman for a mayor 

Our policy is firm but fair 

Now that God is in the house 

God is in the house 

God is in the house 

Any day now He'll come out 

God is in the house 

Well-meaning little therapists 

Goose-stepping twelve-stepping Totalitarianists 

The tipsy, the reeling and the drop down pissed 

We got no time for that stuff here 

Zero crime and no fear 

We've bred all our kittens white 

So you can see them in the night 

And at night we're on our knees 

As quiet as a mouse 

Since the word got out 

From the North down to the South 

For no-one's left in doubt 

There's no fear about 

If we all hold hands and very quietly shout 

Hallelujah 

God is in the house 

God is in the house 

Oh I wish He would come out 

God is in the house
