LYRICS & INFO:

And if these words you do not heed
Your pocketbook just kinda might recede
When some man comes along and claims a godly need
He will clean you out right through your tweed

That's right, you asked for it, remember there is a big difference between kneeling down and bending over . . .

He's got twenty million dollars
In his Heavenly Bank Account . . .
All from those chumps who was
Born again
Oh yeah, oh yeah

He's got seven limousines
And a private plane . . .
All for the use of his
Special Friends
Oh yeah, oh yeah

He's got thousand-dollar suits
And a Wembley Tie . . .
Girls love to stroke it
While he's on the phone
Oh yeah, oh yeah

At the House of Representatives
He's a groovy guy . . .
When he Gives Thanks
He is not alone . . .

He is dealin'
He is really dealin'
IRS can't determine
Where The Hook is

It is easy with the Bible
To pretend that
You're in Show Biz
(And a-one, and a-two, and a . . . )

They won't get him
They will never get him
For the naughty stuff
That he did

It is best in cases like this
To pretend that
You are stupid
(DOH . . . )

He's got Presidential Help
All along the way
He says the grace
While the lawyers chew
Oh yeah
They sure do

And the Governors agree to say:
"He's a lovely man!"
He makes it easier for
Them to screw
All of you . . .
Yes, that's true!

'Cause he helps put The Fear of God
In the Common Man
Snatchin' up money
Everywhere he can
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

He's got twenty million dollars
In his Heavenly Bank Account
You ain't got nothin', people

TAX THE CHURCHES!

You ain't got nothin', people

TAX THE BUSINESSES OWNED BY THE CHURCHES!

You ain't got nothin', people
Thank the man . . . oh yeah

As we end another broadcast day
Let me say
That you ain't got nothin'
And he's got it all
And your miserable self
Is against the wall
The only thing you have not tried
It's the sport of chumps
That's SUICIDE

-------------------

Music: Frank Zappa - Heavenly Bank Account (1981) taken from the album You Are What You Is. The "Tax the churches" part was taken from the live version which originally appeared on the album You Can't Do That On Stage Anymore Vol. 1.

Originally the song had nothing to do with scientology, but everything to do with people who're trying to get their hands on your bucks under the guise of religion.

  • ZAPPA!

  • Scientology, how about that? You hold on to the tin cans and then this guy asks you a bunch of questions, and if you pay enough money you get to join the master race. How's that for a religion? Zappa To a concert audience at the Rockpile, Toronto, May 1969.

    You need to promote your videos more, this one is excellent!

  • Awesome video and so very true!

  • I'll bet he's probably got a little more than twenty milz in his bank account. :)

  • this guys the head of a religion? if Baker & other evangelists got interviewed & stripped by the media then how on earth in this Christian so called society that's supposed to be the strongest religion, can they allow this corporation to keep lying that its a religion? how many cars does miscavige need & why is he making the slaves pay for a new boat that he mucked up with asbestos & he doesn't even shell out a few bucks for it? seems unfair! at least Christ took our sins. this is reverse Christ

  • Funny, I went and found this video after the ARC Song on Scientology's Road to Freedom album reminded me of Heavenly Bank Account. For those who haven't figured, the song actually refers to televangelists. That said, Zappa wasn't exactly a fan of Scientology either(Token of my Extreme anyone?)
