People, now I will speak
This thing here concerns you all
Oh heavens, tell us, tell us, tell us!
Stop, stop! Something
This renter's system's uncivilised and unchristian
Something of the sort befits rats conceived outside their sheets
The parson, the parson, the parson, the parson!
There's a parson in his black
Black?
Is he here, or is he not?
Here's the parson!
To guide our sinful, straying flock?
The parson?
Is it my business?
Your business to ignore
Crowing at your door
Evil's like your fancy, bro
Evil?
Calm now, tell me what it is
Ellen, dear, see, I've gathered all your things
Come rest here
She can tell you, Ellen Orphan
Ellen Orphan, Ellen Orphan, Ellen Orphan
She helped him at his sorrows
She helped him, she helped him, she helped him
Ellen, please
What am I to do?
Speak out in the name of the Lord
Speak out in the name of the Lord
Speak out, speak out, speak out
Speak out in the name of the Lord
Speak out, speak out, speak out
