O Holy Father (We Love You, Holy Father!)



In preparation for the Papal Visit 2010, when our beloved, Holy Father visits the United Kingdom and especially England, Our Lady's Dowry, I have written a song dedicated to Pope Benedict XVI, now gloriously reigning. Obviously, this is the first draft. It needs a little bit of work and...well, George, obviously...


O Holy Father

The Holy Father’s coming over to the UK
We’re tellin’ you Holy Father that you’re welcome to stay
The Holy Father’s coming over to the UK
We’re telling’ you Holy Father that just can’t wait
O Holy Father (O Holy Father)
We love you Holy Father (O Holy Father)
The Holy Father’s coming over to the UK
The Holy Father’s coming and we’re happy to say

You Rock!
You Rock!
You Rock! (Because)
You’re the Rock!

The Holy Father’s coming over to the UK
Richard Dawkins ain’t so happy and Peter Tatchell ain’t so gay
The Holy Father’s coming over to the UK
The Bishops, they’ll be happy when you back go on your way
But O Holy Father (O Holy Father)
We love you Holy Father (O Holy Father)
The Shepherds don’t appreciate just who is coming
They never listen to you and that’s why they’re running ‘cos

You Rock!
You Rock!
You Rock (Because)
You’re the Rock!

Ah the Holy Father’s coming over to the UK
He’s on a mission from the Lord and Benedict is his name
The Holy Father doesn’t play the media game
He only speaks the Truth and puts our country to shame
But O Holy Father (O Holy Father)
We love you Holy Father (O Holy Father)
He’s coming to a land where abortion is rife
A land where men take men and they don’t take a wife…

Yes you Rock!
He’s the Rock!
He’s the Rock!
He’s the Rock!

The Holy Father’s going to beatify Newman
The Anglican convert who found the True God and True Man
The holy Cardinal’s up there crowned in glory
Anglicans should take a leaf out from his story
But O Holy Father (O Holy Father)
We love you Holy Father (O Holy Father)
It looks like things in Birmingham are gettin’ gory
When will we get the truth about the Oratory?

You're the Rock!
You Rock!
You Rock!
You're the Vicar of Our Saviour!
You're the Successor of St Peter!
You're the Holy Father, Pope Benedict
O Holy Father
(Repeat to fade)

Ok, now it's beguining to sound like you are developing some kind of fixation with the Pope. A bit wierd indeed. You'll be stalking him next!

Pope Benedict, straight - I don't think so. He'll be the most effeminate guy in town.
