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...?
