about
A stinging rebuke of religious pretenders and fiery demagogues alike. When I was a kid, religious people were towering figures, rather than cowering ones. Things have changed, apparently.
lyrics
Heading south with butter melting in your mouth
It’s drawn and quartered messenger for tea
Egos grazed and voices raised and there’s no doubt
You exhale and I’ll forget to breathe
Deva fly on broken wing
Church of rage and idiot king
Sing again
Eat your words and spew your junk
Fill your boots till you’re all sunk
Drunk on wild god
Silk pajama dramas by the kitchen sink
You kill all conversation with your thumbs
There’s no shame, there's no taboo, just doublethink
Gift the kool aid knowing they’ll succumb
Deva fly on broken wing
Church of rage and idiot king
Sing again and again
Eat your words and spew your junk
Fill your boots till you’re all sunk
Drunk on wild god
Drunk on wild, wild god
Look who’s crawling out from underneath his stone
Loosey-goosey stepping as he goes
There’s no rest for the wicked or the innocent
in sad saluting, empty suited rows
Deva fly on broken wing
Church of rage and idiot king
Sings again and again
Eat your words and spew your junk
Fill your boots till you’re all sunk
Drunk on wild god
Drunk on wild, wild god
It’s drawn and quartered messenger for tea
Egos grazed and voices raised and there’s no doubt
You exhale and I’ll forget to breathe
Deva fly on broken wing
Church of rage and idiot king
Sing again
Eat your words and spew your junk
Fill your boots till you’re all sunk
Drunk on wild god
Silk pajama dramas by the kitchen sink
You kill all conversation with your thumbs
There’s no shame, there's no taboo, just doublethink
Gift the kool aid knowing they’ll succumb
Deva fly on broken wing
Church of rage and idiot king
Sing again and again
Eat your words and spew your junk
Fill your boots till you’re all sunk
Drunk on wild god
Drunk on wild, wild god
Look who’s crawling out from underneath his stone
Loosey-goosey stepping as he goes
There’s no rest for the wicked or the innocent
in sad saluting, empty suited rows
Deva fly on broken wing
Church of rage and idiot king
Sings again and again
Eat your words and spew your junk
Fill your boots till you’re all sunk
Drunk on wild god
Drunk on wild, wild god

Hypnotic and heartfelt; I find myself frozen and staring off when I listen to it. I'm usually thinking, "This is how it's done". Effortless-sounding in a Weepies/Innocence Mission sort of way.

No Weapon But Love
by Icecream Handssupported by 10 fans who also own “Wild God”
Such a joyful collection of songs. Nothing like quintessential Melbourne alternative rock to lift the spirits. Listening during yet another lockdown transports me to a band room in my favourite pub. Thanks for the music lads- looking forward to seeing you for real when we get outta here.
