Man In A Purple Dress by Who
How dare you wear a robe to preside?
How dare you cover your head to hide
Your face from God?
How dare you smile from behind your beard
To hide the fact your hearts a feared
And wave your rod?
How dare you be the one to access
Me in this God-forsaken mess
You, a man in a purple dress
A man in a purple dress
You are all the same
Gilded and absurd
Regal fast to blame
Rulers by lost word
Men above men, all brats
With your high hats
You priest, you mullah so high
You Pope, you wise rabbi
You're invisible to me
Like vapor from the sea
How dare you, do you think I'll quietly go?
You are much braver than you know
For I come die
Your staff, your stick, your special cap
They'll protect in hell, what crap
