She always brings me what I need

Without a beg and sweat and bleed

When we′re alone at night, waiting for the call

She feeds my skin

16 and on the run from home

Found a job at Times Square, working live S&M shows

25 bucks a fuch, and John's a happy man

She wipes the filth away

And it′s back on the streets again

Spreading the disease

Everybody needs

But no one wants to see

Father William saved her from the streets

She drank the lifeblood from the saviour's feet

She's sister Mary now, eyes as cold as ice

He takes her once a week, on the alter like a sacrifice

Spreading the disease

Everybody needs

But no one wants to see

Religion and sex are powerplays

Manipulate the people for the money they pay

Selling skin, selling God

The numbers look the same on their credit cards

Politicians say no to drugs

While we can pay for wars in South America

Fighting fire with empty words

While the banks get fat and the poor stay poor

And the rich get rich and the cops get paid

To look away as the one percent rules America

Spreading the disease

Everybody needs

But no one wants to see

The way society

Keeps spreading the disease
