Tim Minchin - "Pope Song"

Lyrics:

"Fuck the motherfucker, fuck the motherfucker,
Fuck the motherfucker, he's a fucking motherfucker.
Fuck the motherfucker, fuck the fucking fucker,
Fuck the motherfucker, he's a total fucking fucker.
Fuck the motherfucker, fuck the motherfucker,
Fuck the motherfucker, fucking fuck the motherfucker.
Fuck the motherfucker, fuck the motherfucking Pope."

"Fuck the motherfucker, and fuck you, motherfucker
If you think that motherfucker is sacred.
If you cover for another motherfucker who's a kiddie fucker
Fuck you, you're no better than the motherfucking rapist.
And if you don't like the swearing that this motherfucker forced from me,
And reckon it shows moral or intellectual paucity,
Then fuck you, motherfucker, this is language one employs
When one is fucking cross about fuckers fucking boys."

"I don't give a fuck if calling the pope a motherfucker
Means you unthinkingly brand me an unthinking apostate.
And this has nowt to do with other fucking godly motherfuckers,
I'm not interested right now in fucking scriptural debate.
There are other fucking songs and there are other fucking ways,
I'll be a religious apologist on other fucking days.
And the fact remains, if you protect a single kiddie fucker,
Then Pope or prince or plumber, you're a fucking motherfucker.

"You see, I don't give a fuck what any other motherfucker
Believes about Jesus and his motherfucking mother.
I've no problem with the spiritual beliefs of all these fuckers,
While those beliefs don't impact on the happiness of others.
But if you build your church on claims of fucking moral authority,
And with threats of Hell impose it on others in society,
Then you, you motherfuckers, can expect some fucking wrath
When it turns out you've been fucking us in our motherfucking asses."

"So fuck you motherfucker, and fuck you, motherfucker
If you're still a motherfucking papist.
If he covered for a single motherfucker who's a kiddie fucker,
Fuck the motherfucker, he's as evil as the rapist.
And if you look into your motherfucking heart and tell me true
If this motherfucking stupid fucking song offended you
With its filthy fucking language and its fucking disrespect,
If it made you feel angry, go ahead and write a letter.
But if you find me more offensive than the fucking possibility
The Pope protected priests while they getting fucking fiddly,
Then listen to me, motherfucker, this here is a fact:
You are just as morally misguided as that motherfucking,
Power-hungry self-aggrandized bigot in the stupid fucking hat."

("Fuck the motherfucker, fuck the motherfucker...")
