The Vatican Rag - Tom Lehrer.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. May 2001.

First you get down on your knees,
Fiddle with your rosaries,

Bow your head with great respect,
And genuflect, genuflect, genuflect!

Do whatever steps you want if
You have cleared them with the Pontiff.

Everybody say his own
Kyrie eleison,
Doin' the Vatican Rag.

Get in line in that processional,
Step into that small confessional.

There the guy who's got religion'll
Tell you if your sin's original.

If it is, try playin' it safer,
Drink the wine and chew the wafer,

Two, four, six, eight,
Time to transubstantiate!

So get down upon your knees,
Fiddle with your rosaries,

Bow your head with great respect,
And genuflect, genuflect, genuflect!

Make a cross on your abdomen,
When in Rome do like a Roman;

Ave Maria,
Gee, it's good to see ya.
Doing the Vatican Rag.

So get down upon your knees,
Fiddle with your rosaries,

Bow your head with great respect,
And genuflect, genuflect, genuflect!

Make a cross on your abdomen,
When in Rome do like a Roman;

Ave Maria,
Gee, it's good to see ya.

Doing the Vatican
Gettin' ecstatic an' sorta dramatic an'
Doin' the Vatican Rag!
