firkin - if i could be the pope lyrics

Loading...

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

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 losing their faith
and 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

i was christened unconscious
and i grew up so anxious
to see where this whole tale could lead
i learned all commandments and thought
i was going to be whole no 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

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 losing 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

i was tormented by reason
and accused of treason
when my wonderings 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, if i could be the pope…
maybe i should be the pope…
oh, if i could be the pope…

oh, if i could be the pope
i would refine
all that is human
and all that’s devine

if i could be the pope
i would be fine
i’d reconcile time-sp-ce
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
