The Lyrics
One Pope, older, resigns, sweet Jesus!
One Pope, older, resigns!
Pissin' off Rome with his resignation,
One Pope, older, resigns!
A papal abnegation's uncustomary,
Popes are s'posed to reign a long time!
Pissin' off crowds with his abdication,
One Pope, older, resigns!
Duuuuude's givin' up
The Holy See;
Bennie's been agin',
As you can plainly see;
The felt-up boys and the dirty pastor claims,
Empty promises:
Did Ratzy choose to take a part in these?
He'd sure be likely dead!
Ill Papa's
One Pope, older, resigns, sweet Jesus!
One Pope, older, resigns!
Pissin' off Rome with his resignation,
One Pope, older, resigns!
A papal abnegation's uncustomary,
Popes are s'posed to reign a long time!
Skippin' town now with his abdication,
One Pope, older, resigns!
Christ, nailed away,
Was crucified;
Said, "I'm returnin',
Rollin' rock's my style."
Now, Ben issued bulls
And he cauterized a few,
And his parting lines:
"I'm gettin' feeble, a wrinkled prune;
Hey, smoke me up some skies!"
Damn Pontiff!
One Pope, older, resigns, sweet Jesus!
One Pope, older, resigns!
Flippin' off Rome with his resignation,
One Pope, older, resigns!
A papal abnegation's uncustomary,
Popes are s'posed to reign a long time!
Skippin' town now with his abdication,
One Pope, older, resigns!
Don't you know it's an
Outrageous dereliction for a Pope, sweet Mary!
Popin' dissipates, but no lie:
Flippin' off Cards like a Vegas dealer,
One Pope, older, resigns!
That Pontiff, he's
Done! Pope, older, resigns, sweet Jesus!
One Pope, older, resigns!
Bishops and crowds feelin' alienation,
One Pope, older, resigns!
Pope is slowin' but a
Papal abnegation's uncustomary,
Popes are s'posed to reign a long time!
Skippin' town now with his abdication,
One Pope, older, resigns!
Christendom's down with this late sensation,
One Pope, older, resigns!
Skippin' town now, it's a great vacation!
One Pope, older, resigns,
One Pope, one Pope, older, resigns!
One Pope, older, resigns!
Pissin' off Rome with his resignation,
One Pope, older, resigns!
A papal abnegation's uncustomary,
Popes are s'posed to reign a long time!
Pissin' off crowds with his abdication,
One Pope, older, resigns!
Duuuuude's givin' up
The Holy See;
Bennie's been agin',
As you can plainly see;
The felt-up boys and the dirty pastor claims,
Empty promises:
Did Ratzy choose to take a part in these?
He'd sure be likely dead!
Ill Papa's
One Pope, older, resigns, sweet Jesus!
One Pope, older, resigns!
Pissin' off Rome with his resignation,
One Pope, older, resigns!
A papal abnegation's uncustomary,
Popes are s'posed to reign a long time!
Skippin' town now with his abdication,
One Pope, older, resigns!
Christ, nailed away,
Was crucified;
Said, "I'm returnin',
Rollin' rock's my style."
Now, Ben issued bulls
And he cauterized a few,
And his parting lines:
"I'm gettin' feeble, a wrinkled prune;
Hey, smoke me up some skies!"
Damn Pontiff!
One Pope, older, resigns, sweet Jesus!
One Pope, older, resigns!
Flippin' off Rome with his resignation,
One Pope, older, resigns!
A papal abnegation's uncustomary,

One Pope, older, resigns,
One Pope, one Pope, older, resigns!

Bob - When the helicopter landed yesterday, my wife suddenly said "Look. There's smoke." I couldn't resist asking "Is the smoke white or black?". I guess I got a little ahead of myself. ;D
Thanks, Man, maybe it was Bennie "joinin' the Doobie Brothers"...
One word: genius!
Two words: English major.
Too many words: (by me that is) Seems the heaviest loads are always carried on the oldest and frailest of frames...We hope they will never collapse under the pressure..but sometimes they do.................Anyway, with that said...now he'll have time to do endoresments and celebrity golf tournaments or appear on Saturday Night Live! Do some parasailing in Maui. Maybe hike up a mountain or two and do some intense ziplining down too - That lucky guy. I wish him the best.
