"Antipope" lyrics - THE DAMNED

THE DAMNED
"Antipope"

I'm going back to church tonight
Just like back 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 the people who go there and show they're
Plain ignorant and don't understand
Congregation at weekends won't change their behaviour
So many people are weak enough
To have to seek answers from the pedlars of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That was the day I became antipope

There's gonna be some fun tonight
Spread the news around the town
The vicar's a transvestite
With a fetish for robes and gowns

I've got nothing against church
Or the people who go there and show they're
Plain ignorant and don't understand
Congregation at weekends won't change their behaviour
So many people are weak enough
To have to seek answers from the pedlars of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That was the day I became antipope

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 pope, no way

I've got nothing against church
Or the people who go there and show they're
Plain ignorant and don't understand
Congregation at weekends won't change their behaviour
So many people are weak enough
To have to seek answers from the pedlars of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That was the day I became antipope
