    Lyrics
    CARDINAL BELLARMIN. he seeks to teach us
    a thing or 2
    as if we hadn't
    thought of it before

    he tries to reason
    his point of view
    when everyone knows
    a thing called truth

    why should we listen?
    what is his politic?
    where is the self-evident manner
    that causes a treatise
    to come out of his arm
    like some hourly alarm?

    shut him completely
    take back his teaching.
    a profession to corrupt the young
    with causes and questions
    as if the answers weren't there
    this Copernican devil dares!

    he seeks to preach us
    a gospel of wit
    a lecturer
    has the slightest sense of it!

    what good's his goodness
    when the Bible clearly states
    who has made the heavens
    this man negates!
