Confession/last Year Testo

Testo Confession/last Year

Yes, I've put on the collar againBut no, I'm not celebrating mass...
Not yet, Monsignor
Maybe, in time...
My life now, is... is like...
A sentence in which every word seems to be missing a letter
(Bless me Father, I have sinned
My last confession was...)
You've been very gracious to me, Monsignor
Very... patient
I haven't been able to speak about what happened
It's time to...

There never was an answer!
All of these years I've been living a lie
A lie, a lie, a lie, a lie
My Aunt Monica was right
(Religion is tyranny!)
Born in Rome, she became a communist
After Mussolini was deposed
Then she immigrated to America
(Salute the worker!)
A terrific cook
(Socialism or die!)
And a dedicated Atheist
(You did WHAT?!)
I remember how unhappy she was
When I announced I was entering the priesthood...
