Jim Caroll - Catholic Boy слова песни
I was born in a pool, they made my mother standAnd I spat on that surgeon and his trembling handWhen I felt the light I was worse than boredI stole the doctors scalpel and I slit the cordRefrain:I was a catholic boy,Redeemed through pain,Not through joyI was two months early they put me under glassI screamed and cursed their children when the nurses passedWas convicted of theft when I slipped from the wombThey led me straight from my mother to a cell in the tombsRepeat refrainThey starved me for weeks, they thought theyd teach me fearI fed on cellmates dreams, it gave me fine ideasWhen they cut me loose, the time had served me wellI made allies in heaven, I made comrades in hellI was a catholic childThe blood ran redThe blood ran wildI make angels dance and drop to their kneesWhen I enter a church the feet of statues bleedI understand the fate of all my enemiesJust like christ in the garden of gethsemaneRepeat refrainI watched the sweetest psalm stolen by the choirI dreamed of martyrs bones hanging from a wireI make a contribution, I get absolutionI make a resolution to purify my soulRepeat refrainThey cant touch me nowI got every sacrament behind me:I got baptism,I got communion,I got penance,I got extreme unctionIve got confirmationcause Im a catholic childThe blood ran redThe blood ran wild!Now Im a catholic manI put my tongue to the rail whenever I can.
