E
I was minding my business lifting some lead off
E
The roof of the Holy Name Church
E
It was worthwhile living a laughable life
E
Just to set my eyes on a blistering sight
C#m
Of a vicar in a tutu
 
He's not strange
A B
He just wants to live his life this way
 
E
A scanty bit of a thing with a decorative ring
E
That wouldn't cover the head of a child
E
As Rose collects the money in the cannister
E
Who comes sliding down the banister
C#m
The vicar in a tutu
 
He's not strange
A B
He just wants to live his life this way
 
E
The monkish monsignor with a head full of plaster
E
Said, -my man, get your vile soul dry-cleaned-
E
As Rose counts the money in the cannister
E
As natural as rain he dances again
C#m
Vicar in a tutu
 
Oh yeah
A B
Oh yeah...
 
E E E E
 
C#m
Vicar in a tutu
 
Oh yeah
A B
Oh yeah...
 
E
The next day in the pulpit with freedom and ease
E
Combating ignorance, dust and disease
E
As Rose counts the money in the cannister
E
As natural as raihe dances again and again and again
C#m
And the fabric of a tutu
 
Any man could get used to
A B
And I am a living sign
 
C#m A B
I'm a living sign....
C#m A B
I'm a living sign....
