LYRICS:
The Pope is a guy God thinks is fine
He's also a real good friend of mine
Defender of the Faith, he calls me
Cos I'm such a great Catholic - see?
​
Then I got bored of Catherine
And I wanted to marry Anne
Then the Pope said cos I'm Catholic
I gotta be a one-woman man
​
So no, I don't want no pope
The pope is a guy that can't get no love from me
Gonna split from the Catholics
Now the head of the English Church... is me
​
Then brother Eddie perished
And now the country's mine
And cos I was brought up Catholic
I'll change it back one more time
​
Cos oh, how I love the Pope
The Pope is the guy who reps my God for me
And if you don't agree that's totally fine
I'll just burn you for hersey
​
Now Mary died, the country's mine
How will we pray, I must decide
Born Protestant, raised with Catholics
I really can see both sides
​
Sure, if I trash the Catholics
Then the whole Church is mine
And if they don't obey me
I'll charge them a hefty fine
​
So no, I don't want no pope
The English Church should all be about me
Head of Church and state
That sounds great, call it Act of Supremacy
​
I don't want no pope
No, sorry
But what will happen
After me...?
