(Verse) I was born a catholic and Raised to be a skeptic As far as the teaching's concerned I knew there was something I'd always be searching Through trial and error I learned That no one will love me And no one will save me If I don't love and I don't save myself And nothing from outside Will bring me to glory Not all the world's books on my shelf
(Ref) But if I could be the Pope I'd show you the way All regrets and fears I'd pray away If I could be the Pope I'd need no dope For I'd be providing the best stuff called hope If I could be the Pope, I would elope All the virgins loosing their faith I would sure ditch the rope For I'd be the Pope And that would be something with which I could cope For I'd sure be that Pope.
(Verse) I was christened unconscious And grew up so anxious To see where this whole tale could lead I learned all commandments and thought I was going to Be whole of problems indeed But I found out that all this was highly unlikely to Leave me forever in peace And I'd still have the fears and regrets and I would be always missing a piece.
(Ref) But if I could be the Pope I'd show you the way All regrets and fears I'd pray away If I could be the Pope I'd need no dope For I'd be providing the best stuff called hope If I could be the Pope, I would elope The virgins and non-virgins loosing their faith I would sure ditch the rope For I'd be the Pope And that would be something with which I could cope For I'd sure be that Pope.
(Verse) I've been tormented by reason And accused of treason When my wondering questioned beliefs I lived by the rules and was fed with old news Like a tree without foliage and leaves. But after a while I grew my own crown And I knew I would have to get hold of my soul And I knew that the clues are all given I'd just have to Find them inside on my own.
But if I could be the Pope... (oh ohoho oh ohoho oh ohohohooo) Oh, if I could be the Pope... (oh ohoho oh ohoho oh ohohohooo) Maybe I should be the Pope... (oh ohoho oh ohoho oh ohohohooo) Oh, if I could be the Pope... (oh ohoho oh ohoho oh ohohohooo)
(Ref) Oh, if I could be the Pope I would refine All that is human and all that's divine If I could be the Pope All would be fine I'd reconcile time-space and business and crime If I could be the Pope I'd sing for the world And I would invite all the saints for a drink To tell me tall tales of heaven and earth And grave jokes to laugh about death Oh, maybe I should be the Pope.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
