The Papal Dance

Thousand years twice passed

Blood of Christ, drink holy mass

Orgy of wine, bloodied limb

This you do in remembrance of him


Holy war in madness fought

Conquer the god of another thought

Truthless battle no one wins

This you do in remembrance of him


Probing fingers, infecting wounds, seeking absolution

The carcass rots upon its cross - swearing retribution

(worship me or burn in Hell)


Suffer, children, unto me

Suffocate their will to see


It’s the papal dance

Once step forward, two back

Mankind now divided

In belief misguided


Thou must pay the price


Carve your idol in gold and silver

Pray suffering Christ your soul delivers

Cannibal ritual, idolatrous cult

This you do in remembrance of him


Around your neck you hang your god

Through servitude you become the cross

Illusion, confusion, subterfuge

This you do in remembrance of him


Probing fingers, infecting wounds, seeking absolution

The carcass rots upon its cross - swearing retribution

(worship me or burn in Hell)


Suffer, children, unto me

Suffocate their will to see


It’s the papal dance

Once step forward, two back

Mankind now divided

In belief misguided


I will not believe
