Lyrics
Father Flynn showed a Porno, for all the altar boys to see
I was too scared to scream when he put his hands upon me
Single mother, now, Mary never figured what was wrong with me
She could not see
?Be a good boy for Jesus and stay there on your knees?
But you lied to me now you will see
Chorus:
Hail Mary full of grace come down tumble down Father Flynn
He knew what he did was wrong and now he must pay for his sins
Father Flynn
Sixteen years ago, but it seems like it was yesterday
Now Ive got me a family but the nightmares wont go away Oh No
I was shocked to see you, on TV on the six o?clock news, Yeah it was you
Forced into the light of truth and now you must finally pay your dews
You are screwed cause it was you.
Chorus
Hail Mary full of grace come down tumble down Father Flynn
He knew what he did was wrong and now he must pay for his sins
Father Flynn you have sinned
Don?t you hide behind the cross it?s too late don?t you think
With my hands tied behind my back as you bent me over the sink
He wore ruby red lipstick and smiled and called it a retreat, but was I the treat
Be a good boy for Jesus and we will recite our rosery
But you lied to me now you will see
Hail Mary full of grace come down tumble down Father Flynn
He knew what he did was wrong and now he must pay for his sins
You have sinned Father Flynn
Hail Mary full of grace come down tumble down Father Flynn
He knew what he did was wrong and now he must pay for his sins
You have sinned Father Flynn
