"Howya Julia" lyrics

"Howya Julia"

How ya Julia, how ya Julia
How ya Julia, did ya hear about yer one
How ya Julia, how ya Julia
How ya Julia, did ya hear about yer one

Did you see yer one with Gay-bo, talkin' on the Late, Late Show
She was tellin' us about the things that happened long ago
How she loved the bishop and he loved her just as well
Only God knows will he go to Heaven or to Hell

He helped the starvin' millions and he got them food to eat
And the homeless Irish immigrants are livin' on the street
And when it came to singin' his repertoire was vast
He swore that he'd be celibate he slipped and broke his fast

Mighty, mighty, Lord almighty, off with the collar, off with the nightie
Jesus, Mary and Holy Saint Joseph, the beads are rattlin' now
Mighty, mighty, Lord almighty, off with the collar, off with the nightie
Jesus, Mary and Holy Saint Joseph, the beads are rattlin' now

Now when he was up in Galway takin' in the church collection
His lover must be busy writing down her recollections
Like was the poodle black or white and did the moon come out
I'll have to read this thing meself and find this matter out

When you think about his logic sure its cars that come to mind
Like the way he drove his Lancia to get to church on time
A twenty four hour *** job I did one down in Tuam
He wasn't such a slow coach when he got her in the room

Mighty, mighty, Lord almighty, off with the collar, off with the nightie
Jesus, Mary and Holy Saint Joseph, the beads are rattlin' now
Mighty, mighty, Lord almighty, off with the collar, off with the nightie
Jesus, Mary and Holy Saint Joseph, the beads are rattlin' now

Oh, the blind and faithful followers are worried and distraught
And the only thing that's botherin' them is that the poor man he got caught

Must be funny in the morning he'd be doin' the consecration
After nights of long and passionate, unbridled fornication
Sittin' in the chapel attendin' exposition
Dreaming Karma Sutra and his favorite position

How ya Julia, how ya Julia
How ya Julia, did ya hear about yer one
How ya Julia, how ya Julia
How ya Julia, did ya hear about yer one
