STRIPPER VICAR - Mansun
From the "Attack of the Grey Lantern" 1996
Written by Paul Draper,  great song with funny lyrics
EbDear Mavis I'm compelled to write this letter
CIn the hope that you will soon be feeling better
EbI've a feeling you should go and see a doctor
CIf you haven't then you know you really oughta
AbI was worried so I went to see the vicar but beFfore I could confess
FHe did confess to be a stripper
EbDear Mavis it was very strange to see him sCo I thought I'd write and ask for your opinion
EbShould I grass on him report him to the cardinal 
COr whether I should egg him on to turn professional
AbIf I dob on him they'll call him plastic scouser 
FBut the only thing the stripper vicar wears (is plastic trousers)
CMaviBs' opAinion Gis all we reFally sCeek MCaviBs' oApiniGon is alFl we reaGlly
CShould we lie,  while he's stFill alive  should we lCie,  while he's stFill alive
Cos when the viGcar strips he gets aFway with it
EbDear Mavis I thought I'd follow up my letter drCop a line about the fate of our poor vicar
EbVery tragically his time on earth has ended foCund him hanging in his stockings and suspender
AbDear Mavis if you tell us what your thoughts are and I hoFpe they're not biased

MavBis' oApinioGn is all we rFeally Cseek CMavBis' AopinGion is aFll we reGally
CShould we lie,  while he's stFill alive  should we lCie,  while he's stFill alive
CAnd we know him as our vicar and by night a part time stripper
FAnd he's making wine from water while he dresses like his daughter
CAnd we know that he's a rip off cos we've seen him with his kit off
F
CShould we lie,  while he's stFill alive  should we lCie,  while he's stFill alive
Cos when the viGcar strips he gets aFway with it
