Hollywood Be Thy Name

hollywood be thy name
What is the religious meaning behind this song?

Kneel down ye sinners, to
Streetwise religion
Greed’s been crowned the new King
Hollywood dream teens
Yesterday’s trash queens
Save the blessings for the final ring–AMEN

Wild side

I carry my crucifix
Under my deathlist
Forward my mail to me in hell
Liars and the martyrs
Lost faith in The Father
Long lost in the wishing well

Wild side

Fallen Angels
So fast to kill
Thy kingdom come on the wild side
Our father
Who ain’t in heaven
Be thy name on the wild side

Holy Mary
Mother may I
Pray for us on the wild side
Wild side, Wild side

Is this song anti-religious? I don’t really understand what some of the verses mean. The song is basicially a rip off of the lord’s prayer.
This band is called Motley Crue its for a school project. I met with the teacher regarding the song he thought it was anti religious. I was just looking for some perspective.

It is just a perversion of prayer. Demonic.

One sentence accuses martyrs to have lost faith in the Father (same as liars). Martyrs die because of their faith in the Father & the Son. They are murdered because they do not lose faith.

Who is the father not in heaven? Satan. Asking Holy Mary to pray for them when they are being rebellious (wild side).

And this may just be a song to point out how the world does things. Meant to be an eye opener.

So who is the band?

And we are not suppose to kneel to religion. But that is what many do. We are to kneel before our Father in Heaven & His Son,Jesus Christ our Savior.

For a musician who learned his craft in nightclubs, the Doctor’s track record with concert recordings is decidedly spotty. 1975′s Hollywood Be Thy Name is a ragged document recorded at Willie Purple’s in Los Angeles, though producer Bob Ezrin inserts a few studio tracks without apology or explanation. For every solid New Orleans number, such as “New Island Soiree,” there are two misfires, includin…

From the earliest years of sound film in America, Hollywood studios and independent producers of “race films” for black audiences created stories featuring African American religious practices.
