Judas Priest - Let us pray/Call for the Priest

5th track from the Judas Priest album, Sin After Sin (1977).

Lyrics:

Call for the priest, I’m dying

Well the pressure’s too much

You know I peaked last night

I gotta get some a quick release

City is standing

On my shoulders

My body’s going piece by piece

Yeah!

Yes I know what I want

And I know where to get it

And I’m going there right away

This is one priest

That I don’t have to fall on

Down to my knees and pray

No!

When your back’s to the wall

Come along one and all

We shall fight for the slander that’s penned

It’s us we shall choose

Let the bigoted loose

For our triumph’s the means to their end

With you by my side

I shall ride every storm

Let the cynics drop dead

In their critical head

They’re wrist merchants as you all can see

Bunch of deaf ears

With their columnized fears

What a shame, what a shame, oh dear me

When your back’s to the wall

Come along one and all

We shall fight all the slander that’s penned

It’s us we shall choose

Let the bigoted loose

For our triumph’s the means to their end

Yes I know what I want

And I know where to get it

And I’m going there right away

This is one priest

That I don’t have to fall on

Down to my knees and pray
