F
Fuck the motherfucker Fuck the motherfucker
C7
Fuck the motherfucker he's a fucking motherfucker
Fuck the motherfucker Fuck the fucking fucker
F
Fuck the motherfucker he's a total fucking fucker
Bb Bbm
Fuck the motherfucker Fuck the motherfucker
F D7
Fuck the motherfucker, fucking fuck the motherfucker
G C7 F
Fuck the motherfucker Fuck the motherfucking Pope
[2nd string a: 3---5---3]
F
Fuck the motherfucker, and fuck you, motherfucker
C7
If you think that motherfucker is sacred
If you cover for another motherfucker who's a kiddy fucker
F
Fuck you, you're no better than the motherfucking rapist
Bb Bbm
And if you don't like the swearing that this motherfucker forced from me
F D7
And reckon it shows moral or intellectual paucity
G G7
Then fuck you, motherfucker, this is language one employs
C7 Caug
When one is fucking cross about fuckers fucking boys
F
I don’t give a fuck if call’ng the Pope a motherfucker
C7
Means you unthinkingly brand me an unthinking apostate
This has naught to do with other fucking godly motherfuckers
F
I'm not interested right now in fucking scriptural debate
Bb Bbm
There are other fucking songs and there are other fucking ways
F D7
I’ll be a re-lig-ious apologist on other fucking days
G G7
But the fact remains if you protect a single kiddy fucker
C7
Then Pope or prince or plumber, you're a fucking motherfucker
F
You see I don't give a fuck what any other motherfucker
C7
Believes about Jesus and his motherfucking mother
I've no problem with the spiritual beliefs of all these fuckers
F
While those beliefs don't impact on the happiness of others
Bb Bbm
But if you build your church on claims of fucking moral authority
F D7
And with threats of hell impose it on others in society
G G7
Then you, you motherfuckers, can expect some fucking wrath
C7 Caug
When it turns out you've been fucking us in our motherfucking asses
F
So fuck the motherfucker, and fuck you, motherfucker
C7
If you're still a motherfucking papist
If he covered for a single motherfucker who's a kiddy fucker
F
Fuck the motherfucker, he's as evil as the rapist
Bb Bbm
And if you look into your motherfucking heart and tell me true
F D7
If this motherfucking stupid fucking song offended you
Bb C
With its filthy fucking language and its fucking disrespect
A D7
If it made you feel angry, go ahead and write a letter
Bb C
But if you find me more offensive than the fucking possibility
Bb C
The Pope protected priests when they were getting fucking fiddly
Bb C
Then listen to me motherfucker, this here is a fact
A D7
You are just as morally misguided as that motherfucking
Bb C7 F
power-hungry, self-aggrandized bigot in the stupid fucking hat
