It's about god and TV evangelism

lyrics

tell me what i am to do
little boys with their hands folded tight
little girls, legs crossed, submissive with fright
tell me what i am to do

speak to me of salvation
i can't get it through the t.v.
so what am i to do?
i can't get salvation through my television
so tell me what i am to do

SEND ME TEN-DOLLAR SALVATION
SEND ME TEN-DOLLAR SALVATION

are you lying to me?
don't you know that's a sin?
are you lying to me?
can you heal me?
can you heal me?
are you lying to me?
don't you know that's a sin?
are you lying to me?
don't you know that's a sin?

SEND ME TEN-DOLLAR SALVATION, YEAH
SEND ME TEN-DOLLAR SALVATION

you know what i think of you?
you know what i think of you?
you know what i think of you?

YOUR SPEAKERS ARE BRILLIANT
YOUR MORALS ARE CLEAN
I DON'T NEED YOU
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN
WHEN I SAY THAT THIS GUILTLESS PARADING IS SIN
I DON'T NEED BOOKLETS TO LET JESUS IN
IF I AM SAVED, WELL I'LL KNOW FOR MYSELF
IF NOT I'LL SEE YOUR CORRUPT FACE IN HELL

SEND ME TEN-DOLLAR SALVATION

you already know what i think of you
are you lying to me?
don't you know that's a sin?
are you lying to me?
are you lying to me?
sinner

NOT YOUR PRAYERS
NOT YOUR BOOKS
I DON'T NEED YOU TO TELL ME WHAT I AM TO DO WITH MY LIFE
MOM TAUGHT ME FINE
I DON'T NEED TEN-DOLLAR SALVATION
THROUGH MY T.V.
STOP PREACHING TO ME
STOP PREACHING TO ME
MOM TAUGHT ME FINE
NOT YOUR PRAYERS
NOT YOUR BOOKS
NOT YOUR PREACHER'S GUILTY LOOKS
