+====== Frank Turner - Glory Hallelujah ======
+===== Liedtext =====
+<blockquote>Brothers and sisters, have you heard the news?\\
+The storm has lifted and there's nothing to lose\\
+So swap your confirmation for your dancing shoes\\
+Because there never was no God\\
+Step out of the darkness and on to the streets\\
+Forget about the fast, let's have a carnival feast\\
+Raise up your lowered head and hear the liberation beat\\
+Because there never was no God\\
+And there is no God so clap your hands together\\
+There is no God, no heaven and no hell\\
+For there is no God, we're all in this together\\
+There is no God so ring that victory bell\\
+No cowering in the dark before some overbearing priest\\
+No waiting until we die, until we restitute the meek\\
+No blaming all our failings on imaginary beast\\
+Because there never was no God\\
+No fighting over land your distant fathers told you of\\
+No spilling blood for those who never spread a drop of love\\
+No finger pointing justified by phantoms up above\\
+Because there never was no God\\
+There is no God so clap your hands together\\
+And there is no God, no heaven and no hell\\
+There is no God, we're all in this together\\
+There is no God so ring that victory bell\\
+I know you're scared of dying, man and I am too\\
+But just pretending it's not happening isn't gonna see us through\\
+If we accept that there's an end game and we haven't got much time\\
+Then in the here and now that we can try and do things right\\
+We'd be our own salvation army and together we believe\\
+In all the wondrous things that mere mortals can achieve\\
+Well, I've known beauty in the stillness of cathedrals in the day\\
+I've sung 'Glory Hallelujah', won't you wash my sins away?\\
+But now I'm singing my refrain and this is what I say\\
+I say there never was no God\\
+There is no God so clap your hands together\\
+There is no God, no heaven and no hell\\
+But there is no God, we're all in this together\\
+There is no God so ring that victory bell\\
+One more time\\
+There is no God so clap your hands together\\
+There is no God, no heaven and no hell\\
+But there is no God, we're all in this together\\
+There is no God so ring that victory bell\\

+===== Kommentar des Künstlers =====
+<blockquote>Yet the most striking and contentious song is Glory Hallelujah, described by Turner as "atheist gospel", is a stirring sing-a-long based around a chorus of "There is no God! So clap your hands together!" and is best described as a musical version of London's 2009 atheist bus adverts. "I know this will get a lot of attention, but I want to make it clear it is not an anti-religious song," he says. "It is an anti-theist song. I'm a big Richard Dawkins fan, but I wanted to write a joyous song, not a spiteful fuck-you song that says if you are a religious person, you are an idiot. I have no desire to offend anyone: in fact, I'm not even sure I'll play it at the show tonight because it is in the crypt of Liverpool cathedral.
