CATHOLIC DITTIES
Over at Bettnet there is a blog on Catholic music that will give you a chuckle. A poster named Paul put up lyrics to the tune of "YMCA", and I couldn't resist adding a verse that I'm going to post here as well, because I've got another one to add to it.
With apologies to the Village People...
Faithful, there’s a lot to enjoy.
I said Faithful, there’s a chance to employ
All your talents, and I know you’ll feel great
Standing up there in the sanctuary.
Ladies, the equality’s yours,
In the pulpit--just sign up for the tour
Read the Scriptures to the folks in the pew
Like the fella in the chasuble.
It’s great to be in the New RC Church
It’s great to be in the New RC Church
You can get yourself fed you can get yourself wed
And you can pick and choose what to believe.
It’s great to be in the New RC Church
It’s great to be in the New RC Church
The confession line’s gone the Communion line’s long
And the party’s always in full swing.

Catholics, you will need a good sleuth
In the Vatican there's a spin on the truth
By the pressman named Navarro the Valls
Who fabricates the best encounters.
Catholics, did you think that the Pope
Wrote the story that was meant to give hope
Don't be foolish, someone else wrote the tale
For the truth go check out Magister.
New RC Church
It's great to be in the New RC Church
If you don't like the news, don't go singing the blues
Someone's bound to put a new wrap on it
New RC Church
It's great to be in the New RC Church
Where the lie is the name of the hierarchy's game
While commandments are the rule for strangers
