The Lyrics

After my harsh Anti-Catholic parodies last week, I thought I would lighten things up with a tribute to Pope Francis for his casual image makeover for the Vatican. He is certainly the opposite of his two predecessors in that he is not as charasmatic as Pope John Paul II nor as rigid as Pope Benedict the XVI. Pope Francis is humble to a fault so far and loves simplicity. He has made the public laugh, blessed a golden retriever guide dog, prefers that administrators not kneel when kissing the papal ring, loves to kiss and hug everyone, and pays his own bills. So far, has refused to put on the red mozzetta papal cape or take Vatican One out for a spin. He wants to be the people's Pope and is doing fine. Only one small scandal so far brought up by the AP- his questionable role in Argentina's "Dirty War" from '76-'83 when abductions were common. Although Pope Francis has stated that he fought the oppression, two Jesuits say he turned them over for imprisonment for years....
New World Pope just too cool?
so far… fine

People favor the things you do
Guide dog blessin’
Your simple dressin’

Very first Jesuit
Charity abounds
Pays bills personally
Takes public transport to get around

[Vatican One Limo parked for now]

New World Pope just too cool?
So far… he’s fine
Holds line

They love you
They love you
They love you
With the masses you score
And they don’t care
‘bout conspiracy
Role- “Dirty War”

[You once deplored]

Hear him speak
New World Pope just too cool?
So far… he’s fine
(Minus red mozzetta on balcony)

Rob - Although I am an outsider (since 1517), I am quite taken by his personality. It will be interesting to see how he deals with the visit of Biden and Pelosi. ;D
