BALLS TO MR BANGLESTEIN

1.        There was a Monk of great renown
        There was a monk of great renown
        There was a monk of great renown
        He screwd the girls for miles around
                He screwed the girls for miles around

Chorus! The old bastard! The dirty old sod!
        the dirty old dickie lisker.

         Fugim!         Fugim again!
                The bastard deseres to die!

        Brethren let us pray:

         Glory glory halleluia.
                
                Singing:
        
        Balls to Mr Banglestien, Banglestien Banglestien,
        Balls to Mr Banglestien, dirty old man
        Now he keeps us waiting while he's masterbating
        So balls to Mr Banglestien, dirty old man.

2.         He led her to his lily white bed
        He led her to his lily white bed
        He led her to his lily white bed
        And there he screwed her till she was dead.

3.        The other monks cried out "Oh shame"
        The other monks cried out "Oh shame"
        The other monks cried out "Oh shame"
        And then they went and did the same.

4.        Now this monk died and went to hell
        Now this monk died and went to hell
        Now this monk died and went to hell
        And there he buggered the devil as well!

(About all we can say about the tune is that the chorus follows
O Gu Lieber Augustine for the balls to Mr. Banglestien part while the
rest is a sort of chant. For the most part it takes a very serious
and classical tune. If you don't know it, try one out. It's probably
better than the one we use.)
