Spreading The Disease Lyrics - Operation: Mindcrime - Queensryche

She always brings me what I need 

Without I beg and sweat and bleed 

When we're alone at night 

Waiting for the call 

She feeds my skin 

Sixteen and on the run from home 

Found a job in Times Square 

Working Live S&M shows 

Twenty-five bucks 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 pay for wars in South America 

Photos 

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
