I'm going down to church tonight
Take me back to when I was eight
But I don't mean to pray
I'm gonna nick the collection plate
I've got nothing against church
Or any people that go there and show that
They're ignorant, I don't understand
A congregation at weekends can change their behavior
So many people are weak in their lives
And seek guidance from the pedlars of hope
As you know I used to go there myself
Until the day I became antipope
We're gonna have some fun tonight
Let's spread the news around the town
That the vicar's a transvestite
With a fetish for ropes and gowns
I've got nothing against church
Or any people that go there and show that
They're ignorant, I don't understand
A congregation at weekends can change their behavior
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 all the way
I've got nothing against church
Or any people that go there and show that
They're ignorant, I don't understand
A congregation at weekends can change their behavior
Take me back to when I was eight
But I don't mean to pray
I'm gonna nick the collection plate
I've got nothing against church
Or any people that go there and show that
They're ignorant, I don't understand
A congregation at weekends can change their behavior
So many people are weak in their lives
And seek guidance from the pedlars of hope
As you know I used to go there myself
Until the day I became antipope
We're gonna have some fun tonight
Let's spread the news around the town
That the vicar's a transvestite
With a fetish for ropes and gowns
I've got nothing against church
Or any people that go there and show that
They're ignorant, I don't understand
A congregation at weekends can change their behavior
Religion doesn't mean a thing
Its just another way of being right wing

+1General CommentObviously against the religious mind set specifically Christianity and even more specifically Catholicism. Its good to note that the song clearly explains its not against the followers, but the actual priests and hierarchy of religion or the people making money off other peoples suffering.

0General CommentI myself agree with his stance because I use to be a church goer myself. I think the "Church" as a institution is bad but the fellows aren't exactly. The institution is full of deception,stealing, lies,etc.liktheangelon April 25, 2011 Link
