From the recording Neatly Tied Religion
Lyrics
Oy Vey Maria
You were a simple Jewish girl
But now you're exalted "Queen of Heaven"
A sin condemned by the prophets of old
The veneration of Venus remains
They have only changed the name
It's true you were the chosen virgin
To birth Messiah to the world
But you were in need of the Savior
As much as any Jewish girl
Oy Vey Maria
Oy Vey Maria
The pain of it all has pierced your heart
Exalting you to be a goddess
And seating you at the right hand of God
A place that only belongs to the Son
What a grievous thing they've done
It's true you were the chosen virgin
To birth Messiah to the world
But this doctrine of men that makes you an idol
Is a lie straight from the pit of hell
Oy Vey Maria
