[Verse 1]
They pinned their hopes on his return
to leave us all behind:
venit, vidit, declinavit!
And they’re still here with us?
[Chorus]
venit, vidit, flens avertit:
adorabant daemonium.
I thought they’d all be gone by now,
but they left Jesus in their book.
[Verse 2]
They told us all the time we’d burn
while they set us aflame:
venit, vidit, et evomuit!
And they’re condemning us?
[Chorus]
venit, vidit, flens avertit:
adorabant daemonium.
I thought they’d all be gone by now,
but they left Jesus in their book.
[Verse 3]
They warned us of the Beast to come
demanding 6-6-6:
venit, vidit, et reliquit
And they were left with us.
[Chorus]
venit, vidit, flens avertit:
adorabant daemonium.
I thought they’d all be gone by now,
but they left Jesus in their book.
[Outro, contemplative section]
They gave their man of lawlessness
their hearts and loyalty,
extolling him as King of Kings:
their 4-10-20 crook!
No, they don’t want the rapture now:
not while their golden calf’s in charge,
and screwing them while they get off
on faking their apocalypse.
Venit, vidit, flens avertit:
adorabant daemonium.
