THE DAMNED!


anti-pope (live 2007)
I'm going back to church tonight
Take me 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 there
Plain ignorant they don't understand
At congregation at weekends will change their behaviour
So many people are weak enough
To have to seek answers from peddlers of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That's the day I became antipope

Theres gonna be some fun tonight
Spending it around the town
The vicars are transvestites
With a fetish for robes and gowns

I've got nothing against church
Or the people who go there and show there
Plain ignorant they don't understand
At congregation at weekends will change their behaviour
So many people are weak enough
To have to seek answers from peddlers of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That's 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 poko way

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

at least he's apologised for all the toddler bothering that goes on in the catholic church. I was at that damned gig, somewhere down the front, still love the damned after over 20 years, just wish they'd get a new album out.

I was just listening to MGE this week, driving around town and hollering my lungs out to this song!
