Anti-Pope
I'm going back to church tonight
Just like back when I was eight
But I don't mean to pray
I'm gonna nick a collection plate
I've got nothing against church
Only people that go there and show they're
Plain ignorant and don't understand
A congregation at weekends will change their behaviour
So many people are weak and then have to
seek answers from pedlars of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That's the day I became antipope
There's gonna be some fun tonight
Spreading news around the town
That the vicar's a transvestite
With a fetish for robes and gowns
I've got nothing against church
Only people that go there and show they're
Plain ignorant and don't understand
A congregation at weekends will change their behaviour
So many people are weak and then have to
seek answers from pedlars of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That's the day I became antipope
Religion doesn't mean a thing
Its just another way of being right wing
I think sex films are okay
I don't dig that pope, no way
I've got nothing against church
Only people that go there and show they're
Plain ignorant and don't understand
A congregation at weekends will change their behaviour
So many people are weak and then have to
seek answers from pedlars of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That's the day I became antipope
Just like back when I was eight
But I don't mean to pray
I'm gonna nick a collection plate
I've got nothing against church
Only people that go there and show they're
Plain ignorant and don't understand
A congregation at weekends will change their behaviour
So many people are weak and then have to
seek answers from pedlars of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That's the day I became antipope
There's gonna be some fun tonight
Spreading news around the town
That the vicar's a transvestite
With a fetish for robes and gowns
I've got nothing against church
Only people that go there and show they're
Plain ignorant and don't understand
A congregation at weekends will change their behaviour
So many people are weak and then have to
seek answers from pedlars of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That's the day I became antipope
Religion doesn't mean a thing
Its just another way of being right wing
I think sex films are okay
I don't dig that pope, no way
I've got nothing against church
Only people that go there and show they're
Plain ignorant and don't understand
A congregation at weekends will change their behaviour
So many people are weak and then have to
seek answers from pedlars of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That's the day I became antipope
