[Chorus]
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Come down and show us what s wrong
[Verse]
When every word s been sung or spoken
And bygone battles have been lost or won
When all is mended that once was broken
Who crawled will surely run
[Verse]
And when all our creeds and all of our deeds
Are centred on each other s needs
When men depend on harmonies
The world will have begun
[Chorus]
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Are you really real, do you love every one?
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Come down and show us what s wrong
[Verse]
If the sins of the father are also the son s
What chance do we have in this game
Everything s blacker, we argue with guns
With money we burn and we maim
[Verse]
And is it all for a reason, this game without end
To be rich, you have to have poor
And is feasting to famine, like sitting to standing
Or is there a hole in god s door?
[Chorus]
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Are you really real, do you love every one?
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Come down and show us what s wrong
[Instrumental]
x4
[Chorus]
Matthew, Mark, Luke and Paul
Are your fingers in your ears, can you hear us at all
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Come down and show us what s wrong
