Preying on the innocent
Protected by the papacy
So called men of enlightenment
Children fingered by the hand of God
Raped in the name of Christ
They took a vow of chastity
Yet have torn asunder so many a life
Chorus:
Chickenhawks of the Catholic Church
Out to save and destroy
They have become the preist of burden
And he's become an altered boy
Men so benevolent
In a position of trust
Molesting children by the score
Rendering young life straight into the dust
They're curch is their Golgotha
Their crucified by the priest
Child becomes the victim
Holy Father becomes the beast
Repeat chorus
Multi-million dollar payouts
Restitution for their crimes
This vile sickness
Cut so many down in their prime
All the bishops and the cardinals
Tried to hide it away
In the parish and cathedrals
The predators come to prey
Repeat chorus
Unholy pedophile Preying on the innocent Protected by the papacy So called men of enlightenment Children fingered by the hand of God Raped in the name of Christ They took a vow of chastity Yet have torn asunder so many a life Chorus: Chickenhawks of the Catholic Church Out to save and destroy They have become the preist of burden And he's become an altered boy Men so benevolent In a position of trust Molesting children by the score Rendering young life straight into the dust They're curch is their Golgotha Their crucified by the priest Child becomes the victim Holy Father becomes the beast Repeat chorus Multi-million dollar payouts Restitution for their crimes This vile sickness Cut so many down in their prime All the bishops and the cardinals Tried to hide it away In the parish and cathedrals The predators come to prey Repeat chorus Explain Request ×
