A Permuta Dos Santos

São José de porcelana vai morar
Na matriz da Imaculada Conceição
O Bom José desalojado
Pode agora despertar
E acudir os seus fiéis sem terra, sem trabalho e pão
Vai a Virgem de alabastro Conceição
Na charola para a igreja do Bonfim
A Conceição incomodada
Vai ouvir nossa oração
Nos livrar da seca, da enxurrada e da estação ruim
Bom Jesus de luz neon sai do Bonfim
Pra capela de São Carlos Barromeu
O bom Jesus contrariado
Deve se lembrar enfim
De mandar o tempo de fartura que nos prometeu
Barromeu pedra-sabão vai pro altar
Pertencente à estrela-mãe de Nazaré
A Nazaré vai de jumento
Pro mosteiro de São Joào
E o Evangelista pra basílica de São José
Mas se a vida mesmo assim não melhorar
Os beatos vão largar a boa-fé
E as paróquias com seus santos
Tudo fora de lugar
Santo que quiser voltar pra casa
Só se for a pé
