To Kill a Catholic
To kill a Catholic man
Takes something out of God
The wit that it takes is not far from the truth
That death casts a kinder shine on mediocrity
What makes a word liable to start a fire
In what distant land where they don't understand
Your definition of hell?
They haven't forgotten this aside to the dying
A footnote to an epitaph, best left as a P.S
A life played for keeps in the grip of a fist
Then you're dragging it around like some damn crucifix
What makes a prayer leave this world stillborn?
Who's distant hearts are secretly warmеd by
Your definition of obsolescencе?
They answered a battle cry so terribly strong
It'd curdle your heart if you heard it sung
Heads are alive with a call to marches
A call to psalms, my God! Je voix une croix!
What makes a word liable to start a fire
In what distant land where they don't understand
Your definition of hell?
