Dog Latin |
Painted grottos all falling down |
Prayer books and hymnals all strewn around |
Father McCarthey cannot say his prayers |
Locked all the doors and taken away the chairs |
Chorus: And the cardinal still sits on his golden throne |
Weeping and praying out in the hot day sun |
Little white lamb of God trapped in the wires |
Burning a brand new flame, a brand new fire |
Rome is empty, all the parishioners have gone |
Everyone’s on the night life, they’re out having fun |
Nobody’s there, no nobody’s home |
A little black monkey’s on the Sits on the Papal throne |
Dominus vobiscum et cum spiritu Gloria Gloria Kyrie eleison Christi eleison |
kyrie eleison ??? |
Amen |
Nobody cares and why should they care |
I don’t want to see it, no I don’t want to share |
Yes I sing for free and nobody bothers me |
No I’m not a penitent, I’m blind but I can see |
Dominus vobiscum et cum spiritu Gloria gloria Kyrie eleison, Christi eleison |
Kyrie eleison Christie eleison ad nauseum ??? |
Amen |
And the cardinal still sits on his golden throne |
Weeping and moaning out in the hot day sun |
Little white lamb of God trapped in the wires |
Burning a brand new flame, a brand new fire |
