Never thought I’d podcast ’bout the liturgy
Never thought I’d broadcast ’bout these mysteries
Told Chris I wrote this rap and he’s proud of me
What’s your favorite word D-Mac? Ontology!

First up is my dog D-Mac
He loves pie crust you can feed’em that
He’s a church architecture lovin’ maniac
Been here since the Institute began
Then we got Chris he’s a liturgy expert
He was our student now he’s a professor
You should see this man give one of his lectures
He can quote documents with zero conjecture
Denis and Chris are a one-two punch
You just missed Kevin ’cause he went to lunch
No, I never thought I’d love this liturgy stuff
But look me now I soak it up like a sponge
Making this show’s been a great opportunity
Hearing the guys share their knowledge so beautifully
I’m such a nerd now, what did they just do to me?
I can now quote Tra le sollecitudini

“Liturgy is boring…I’m snoring…it needs to cease”
“Maybe you should wake me up right before the kiss of peace”
These are real things people say ’bout the liturgy
I’m sitting here thinking to myself, “are you kidding me!?”
When you sit in God’s house act polite
Make sure your heart’s pure and contrite
These aren’t my rules these are facts, alright?
If you don’t trust me ask an acolyte
I pray brethren that you just remain seated
Until this sentence of mine’s done and completed
Holding hands for our Lord’s prayer is so unneeded
I just told my friend that and he’s now retreated
There’s so much to know and familiarize
So many people just politicize
Our only goal is to revitalize
We are the best we’re the Liturgy Guys!

St. Thomas was a hesitant bloke
Touched the wounds of Christ, was a real slow poke
Don’t get incensed, holy smokes
You really need to learn to take a liturgy joke
Shout out to our Patreon friends
We thank you time and time again
We pray for all you women and men
In saecula saeculorum Amen!
It’s all about the bride and the bridegroom
A church is a church not a living room
I want grace poured like a typhoon
If you don’t like chant, there’s the cry room
Liturgy renewal… now that’s a forecast
Come to our school… now that you’re steadfast
Suddenly we’re cool? … Now that we broadcast?
