Singer questions the tenets of organized religion. Wondering whether Christ would deem his death worthwhile amist today's material excesses, and comparing heaven with disneyworld. Aren't they just two different marketing schemes gone awry?

Lyrics
Time Flows, see where it goes
Running around, answers are found
Son of the father have you denied
Christ died wondering why
soldiers will come and fight til its done
Son of the father have you denied
Is it the feeling of leaving the life that you're leading
Makes you angry makes you strike the wall, makes you strike the wall
Is it the feeling of losing the life that you're choosing, makes
You feel poor, makes you hate the law, makes you hate the law
Down where the palm trees grow that's where I've got to go
feeling of going home
That's where the cool wind blows,
That's where the winter snows can never touch me, touch me, touch me
I've seen heaven in my dreams, it's the closest thing to Disney's scheme
Golden castles in the air and mouseketeers are everywhere
Son of the Father, have you denied
