[Verse 1]
Taxi driver
You're my shrink for the hour
Leave the meter running
It's rush hour
So take the streets if you wanna
Just outrun the demons, could you
He said "allahu akbar", I told him don't curse me
"bo bo you need prayer", I guess it couldn't hurt me
If it brings me to my knees
It's a bad religion
[Chorus]
This unrequited love
To me it's nothing but
A one-man cult
And cyanide in my styrofoam cup
I could never make him love me
Never make him love me
Love
Love
[Verse 2]
Taxi driver
I swear I've got three lives
Balanced on my head like steak knives
I can't tell you the truth about my disguise
I can't trust no one
And you say "allahu akbar", I told him don't curse me
"bo bo you need prayer", I guess it couldn't hurt me
If it brings me to my knees
It's a bad religion
[Chorus]
[Outro]
It's a bad religion
To be in love with someone
Who could never love you
I know
Only bad religion
Could have me feeling the way I do

It's a bad religion/To be in love with someone/Who could never love you/I know/Only bad religion/Could have me feeling the way I do
A stark confessional from a budding superstar, “Bad Religion” is a tale of unrequited love; an elusive one that will almost always exist beyond reach. The emotion projected is palpable – from the opening note to the last – and Frank’s solemn nature hints at a profound wisdom well beyond his years.
