1
How dare you wear a robe to preside
2
How dare you cover your head to hide
3
Your face from God
4
How dare you smile from behind your beard
5
To hide the fact your heart's afeared,
6
And wave your rod
7
How dare you be the one to assess
8
Me, in this God-forsaken mess
9
You, a man, in a purple dress
10
A man in a purple dress
11
You are all the same
12
Gilded and absurd
13
Regal, fast to blame
14
Rulers by lost word
15
Men above men, or prats
16
With your high hats
17
You priest, you mullah so high
18
You pope, you wise rabbi
19
You're invisible to me
20
Like vapour from the sea
21
How dare you? Do you think I'll quietly go?
22
You are much braver than you know
23
For I can't die
24
Your staff, your stick, your special cap
25
They'll protect in Hell? What crap!
26
Believe the lie
27
How dare you be the one to assess
28
Me, in this God-forsaken mess
29
You, a man, in a purple dress
30
A man in a purple dress
31
When you place your frown
32
Between my God and prayer
33
However grand your crown
34
Or dignified your hair
35
Men above men, or prats
36
In your high hats
37
You priest, you mullah so high
38
You pope, you wise rabbi
39
You are invisible to me
40
Like vapour from the sea
41
I lovingly mock you noble lords
42
We all dress up to grant awards
43
I do that as well
44
I dare condemn your fashion sense
45
At least you're not astride a fence
46
That would not sell
47
But I will deliver this address
48
Your soul's condition don't impress
49
You, a man, in a purple dress
50
A man in a purple dress
