The bell is cracked
But no matter
Thou who do not hear it
Would not come
And the stained glass windows
Are stained indeed
And glean of red and green
Cast pools of colour in the dust
And pageantry and promp
Have grown too pompous
And the fat priests
Are old men dressed in funny clothes
And the plastic virgin
Simpering in a blue robe
Had her nose broken off
Before they invented penicillin
It used to turn them on
Or so they say
No more! No more!
They all freaked out Amen.
