Broken Rites
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Father O'Donnell was a good man of a church
Catholic parish priest
A tale you should have heard
A holy pedophile
The glory of the lord he served so well
With rape of altar boys and girls
50 years of child abuse
They didn't want to know
No guilt and no excuse
On with the Jesus show
Convict 100 priests who acted just the same
Retired gracefully
The victims left in shame
Holy shit
Catholics
Fuck your politics
Right-wing Jesus hosts
Fuck the son
The holy ghost
Fuck the lord
Fuck the book
Can't you see your cross is crooked
Your lies
Your laws
Turn our children into whores
Pedophile christianity
Assaulted in the sacristy
Molested by the holy priest
Cover-up your pedophiles
Broken rites
Broken holy rites
On march 11th '97 Kevin died
His brothers of the church
They prayed for him and cried
This great affliction caused him suffering in life
It's good tradition not to talk about these crimes
Holy father
Holy lord
Holy bible
Holy fraud
Holy ghost
Holy sperm
I hope in hell you burn
Holy Mary
Holy priest
Holy anus
Holy beast
Holy your anointed prick
Smeared with virgin shit
Bastard usurper
Pastor Emeritus sings
Up with the angels to the glory of you
King
The great archdiocese ignored the case of him
Oh tell me what about the victims suffering
Tell your children not to talk to priests
Pedophiles
Tell your children not to walk with priests
Broken holy rites
