From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Shallow Be Thy Game" is a song by the Red Hot Chili Peppers from their 1995 album One Hot Minute. It was released as a single only in Australia, bearing the same photograph on the front cover as the "Coffee Shop" single released in the rest of the world.
The song's lyrics reject organised religion in general, but particularly Christianity. The song speaks against missionaries pushing their ideas on people who don't want them, and the song's name itself is apparently a derogatory pun on the Christian phrase "hallowed be thy Name" from the Lord's prayer.
