He's an o l' altar boy
Lying out ther e in the street
He's an ol' a ltar boy
Bound up i n leather and chains
That's w hy I'm feeling so b lue
I 'm an old altar b oy
What about you?
Now I can order i n Latin
Make 'em au g ratin Joe
I 'm an old altar boy
That's w hy I'm so dep ressed
I n ever got the r est of the dream
Just the ritual
Now I' m habitual
Maj oring in crime s that are unspeak able
Cause I'm an old alta r boy
That's what happened to me
I'm an o ld altar boy
He's h oping he can meet a woman dressed lik e a nun
H e knows there's go t to be some aro und here
D rinking across from the church
A l ittle Father Crib ari wine
On a Sund ay morn' t ime
I'm an old a ltar boy
Why i s he winking a t this time in his life?
He never took a wi fe cause he's an o ld altar boy
O h yeah ...
What about y ou?
