Vicar in a Tutu - Live in London, 1986

I was minding my business
I was lifting some lead off
The roof of the holy name church

It was worthwhile living a laughable life
Jus5o set my eyes on the blistering sight
Of a vicar in a tutu
He's not strange
He just wants to live his life this way

A scanty bit of a thing
Covered with a decorative ring
That wouldn't cover the head of a child

As rose collects the money in the cannister
Who comes sliding down the bannister?
Vicar in a tutu
He's not strange
He just wants to live his life this way

The monkish monsignor
With a head full of plaster
Said my man, get your vile soul dry-cleaned
As rose collects the money in the cannister
As natural as rain
And he dances again, my God
Vicar in a tutu

Vicar in a tutu
The next day in the pulpit
With freedom and ease
Combatting ignorance, dust with disease
As rose counts the money in the cannister

As natural as rain
And he dances again and again
With a fabric of a tutu
Any man could get used to
And I am the living sign

And I'm a living sign
I'm a living sign
I'm a living sign
I'm a living sign
I'm a living sign
I'm a living sign
