Catholic Boy
I was born in a pool Left in my mother's stand I spat at that surgeon and his tremblin' hand When I felt for life, I was the nursery boy I stole the doctors scalpel and I slit the cord...
I was a Catholic boy... I was redeemed through pain, not through joy...
I was two months early, they put me under glass I screamed and cursed at children when the nurses passed Was convicted of theft as I slid from the womb They led me straight from my stroller to a cell in the tombs...
I was a Catholic boy... Redeemed through pain, not through joy...
They starved me for weeks, they thought they'd teach me fear I fed on cell-mates trees, it gave me flyin' ideas When they cut me loose, the time it served you well I made allies in Heaven, comrades in Hell
I was a Catholic child... With the grand red...the grand wild...
I make angels dance and drop to their knees When I enter a church the feet of statue bleed I understand the faith of all my enemies With that Christ and the God, it's never me...
I'm a Catholic boy... I was redeemed through pain and not through joy...
I watched His sweetest psalms stolen by the choir I dreamed of all his bones hangin' from a wire I take the contribution, I get absolution I make the resolution to verify my soul...
I'm a Catholic boy... Redeemed through pain, not through joy...
And they can't touch me now, I got every size of the... They got Baptism, I got Penance I got Communion, I got extreme... Man...I got Confirmation...
I was a Catholic boy... Redeemed through pain and not through joy... And now, I'm a Catholic man... I put my tongue to the rail whenever I can...
