Intro:
G#m x4

G#m                         G#m
A monk with a hard-on, And a lavender robe
      C#m                   D# 
That scratches his thighs, Through the hat that he strode
G#m                    G#m
As he follows a path, Filled with every desire
    C#m                    D#                       G#m
And mimics his footsteps, And sets his prayers on fire.

G#m                       G#m
Well I too have chosen, That which left no choice
   C#m                  D# 
To sing without loving,A solitary voice,
G#m                       G#m
To observe with passion, Each careful denial
    C#m                             D#                     G#m
The protrusions which give my life meaning for a while.

 
     G#m                     C#m
     Sometimes I see you in berries and weeds
            B                        E
     You're brushing your teeth with liquorice seeds
     E                   A  
     Standing too close, Pulling your clothes,
     D#
     Smiling at God And the meaning of life grows.


G#m                       G#m
No and I'll never tell, And I'll never know
     C#m                  D# 
What candles you light, After the show
G#m                   G#m
And I'll never tell, And I'll never ask
    C#m              D# 
The meaning of life after mass. 

G#m G#m7
