MOTHER CHURCH

MOTHER CHURCH

(Dedicated to the film "Priest")

Mother Church!
Mother Church!

Hark us who besmirch!

Sheltered in a cross
And Delightful in your sin
You Accuse without a pause
but your Word is really thin.

Mother Church!
Mother Church!
Hidden you must lurch!

I am a boil in your house
I don't ask for confession,
though I'm lesser than a mouse
I claim for validation.

Mother Church!
Mother Church!

I did endeavour to search!

But in thy disdainful heart
there's no warmth for my kind
The solution to depart
and erase you from my mind.

Mother Church!
Mother Church!
Resting lonely in your perch!

Behold an earthly man
with tears in his eyes.
For loving another man
I must pay now for your lies.

Mother Church!
Mother Church!
Hit me not with your birch!

Educated in your soul
I strived to find my way
And it was my unique goal
that for you I shall not pray.

Mother Church!
Mother Church!
How can you say I smirch!

Mother Church..........hear my cry
Mother Church..........step off line
Mother Church..........speared my head
Mother Church..........raise the dead
Mother Church..........hear my litany
Mother Church..........there's no sanctity
Mother Church..........tell the truth
Mother Church..........do like Ruth
Mother Church..........You fooled us
Mother Church..........You cooled us
Mother Church..........Seeing you so far
Mother Church..........Where you can't mar
Mother Church..........feel my tears
Mother Church..........I've no fears.

Mother Church..........

Mother Church..........

Mother Church..........

Mother Church..........

Tony, July '96.
