Man with a Mission Lyrics

Cover art for Man with a Mission lyrics by Bad Religion

The song is about a priest or some other type of christian holy man. I don't know for sure but I think the parts of the song:

"Now somebody out there must be reading my mail"

"Now somebody out there must be tapping my phone,"

Lead me to believe they might be referring to a specific real life priest who came under some trouble at the time the song was written, but this is admittedly speculation on my part
