US Bishop Admits the Extent of the Disaster of the Spirit of VII



The Tiber and the Rhine [to be sung to the tune of Cliff Richard's 'Mistletoe and Wine']

50 years since the Council
An anniversary
The 'Spirit of the Council' still lives on today
EMHCs, altar girls, tambourines 
Polyester vestments, les dansers liturgique

Christmas time, its Rahner cold outside
So put another heretic on the fire
With Tablets on the pyre and Kung’s theology
A time to lament the 1960s

A time for a sober reflection on the Council, 
A time for the SSPX to maybe chill out 
Then Lefebvre, now Fellay, we see you have a case
But for Pete’s sake if you’re not with us, 
Then what difference can you make? 
Help!

Christmas time, the Tiber met the Rhine
We hoped Protestants and Catholics would unite 
So we altered the texts of the glorious Mass, 
We banished the Latin
Now the liturgy's crass 

Christmas time, the Tiber met the Rhine 
And now we long for the Mass Tridentine 
A Rite that fell into widespread disuse 
Now we’re bombarded weekly with liturgical abuse 

It's a time for reflecting, a time for regretting
The countless number of souls who just stopped attending
Now a new generation looks for someone to blame
Cardinal Bugnini, ah how we venerate your name!

Christmas time, its Rahner cold outside
So put another heretic on the fire
With Tablets on the pyre with Kung’s theology
A time to lament the 1960s

Christmas time, the Tiber met the Rhine
We hoped Protestants and Catholics would unite
So we altered the texts of the glorious Mass
Banished the Latin
Now the liturgy's crass 

Christmas time, the Tiber met the Rhine 
And now we long for the Mass Tridentine 
A Rite that fell into widespread disuse 
And now we’re bombarded weekly with liturgical abuse

Christmas time, its Rahner cold outside
So put another heretic on the fire
With Tablets on the pyre with Kung’s theology
A time to lament the 1960s


[Song fades with school children singing the chorus, while setting fire to the works of various discredited theologians and throwing darts at poster of Bugnini]
