Anti‐Pope Songtext
von The Damned

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
