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 |
