(11:13) This song is not anti-religion nor anti-pope. The position of 'pope' in the storyline represents ANY leader religious or not, who use the position of power to spread a word of hate against any other group of people.
This is pure progressive rock. The songs are very long, very high energy with metal influences but very unstructured with many tempo changes and time signature
Story behind the song
Written and Recording in May 2005. Remixed in April 2007.
This song is not anti-religion nor anti-pope in any way. I'm only using the position of "pope" in the storyline as representative of ANY leader, be it religious or otherwise, who use the position of power to spread a word of hate against any other group of people. It's actually about a child who realizes the "entity" of pope can serve a BETTER purpose, and dedicates his life to BECOME pope, solely to undermine it in a sense, but in a good way, but falls to the distortion that increasing power can bring to such idealistic goals.

** Papalectomy **
Praise to reason prize to all....
(1-2-3-4 tell the people what he wore) Fourteen made a factioning altering a fable sanctimony catalyze jesus in a stable controversial benedict not an unbeliever rigidly emulsified ranking an upheaval plan (concentrate emulate) petty rules intensified slaving to the master all my life’s formaldehyde kissing rings of bastards genuflect-erecter zone chomping up for dinner staying smart to play a part a deceiver winner can dribble dedication to the hate of one old man who thinks it his responsibility to regulate all change because it’s just political to grate his power on who will fall under the scrutiny of pope dope "and I of course would reinforce the ban" (if I had to) "make a slated retrograded clan" (winking to you) "purify my congregation and make-up god’s commands" because of this girl now impregnated if all of these gays can’t sing about it not one of those men should live without it.
Blazing razor legacy writes gyromatic flogger on a radium supremacy while f*** ed in holy water cumming one to be four senator is not aristocratically pacified hereditary frozen censored cinematic sham but there’s an opportunity for me to take the role (religious right will not come after me) but offer the complexity of playing on both sides I know (free dogmatic scrutinizer flee) because religious leader’s power defines the god in man (as a liar self-aspired) who hail to the senility of pope dope, "And I of course may use the force of crazed initiated, and in surprise may serialize my days, unabated, pastoral spies internalize this play dripping serenade" because of your son now dead in holy wars not one of those guns can spread this word no more what the f*** have we done it’s lunacy.
Stage fictitious ceremonies underlying fantastical in national progressive leaning pastor rising to articulate amorphous retro-postulate and then I make and calibrate essential conservative apathetic paralyzing synthesizing hectic formulaic cardinal spotlights violation rotates sir night fornicating ration belt right fire emerging on that girl my attitude black rain falls aside approach that girl my attitude wrung in moderation decided to run hear my new issues gateway totally obliterated such opposition desecrating popularity but girl my calling should run dry time to screw in on that girl my attitude drugged in silence a nun decided to love hear my new issues break the fall of the bombastic catering to the elastic, choose from creepy crawling made-up bawling amitotic evol-sprawling....
For what is a sinner with an alien pride if I could touch myself then blame myself avert accusing eyes entire nations circle running truce against the bag of sacred oozing parity prosperity a judgment haven in a fourth dimension something running jumping in the aerometric tandem luck is cussing fussing centric pacing automatic static chasing....Helping a tee in life I call another free attempt in city gray away to stay amends this man attends because he can while searching a breath in driving what attempt contempt is always something that I feign but still remains I try again with eighty voting cardinals dictate the effervescence await the fate presiding my proliferate shouting to hounding camera oceanic masses turbulent synchronizing celibacy gazing paraphrasing my words suddenly a sacred creed my masturbating mouth the seed of mockery.
(5-6-7-8 tell the people concentrate) Aristocracy must be for a reason it seems my hypocrisy slightly short of treason cumming one two three four concubines swaying to the master so don’t forget conglomerate faulty economic laden cause scribbles dedication to the art of sacristies (where a little gradient can please) to foster incidental heathen long betrayed the heart in creed (a denial self-defiled) you see it’s simply wielding power that defines how god is man (existential as essential) now hail to your superior and "I of course will clear the force behaves unattended
