Judas [English translation]

[In the Vatican, they'd rather let young people die from AIDS than allow the use of "demonic" condoms. Their stupid male chauvinism denies women their right to priesthood; and the gold in their churches, and their virgins, can't be used for feeding mouths. But that's for sure, little John1 sleeps peacefully.]

This letter I that I am writing for you

distinguished lordship

is an explanatory fax

I just commited suicide

My name is Judas!

I get dressed from the head down

I wear a little white dress

and nobody knows with certainty

what the hell I'm talking about

My dwelling is the Vatican

and I drug my brothers2 with faith

And although I'm wearing a fisherman's sandals,

and I bless the flock of sheep,

I cross my fingers,

and take in money with my hands,

my lord is power, my name is Judas.

I've dressed up the Church with gold

Lucifer cries from excitement

and for selling my master

twenty gold coins they paid me.

I surround myself with ministers

from the Opus, and very smart3.

I have banned contraceptives,

only my bishops use it.

This amount for a baptism, that amout for the communion,

we finance your last rites in installments.

1. Generic name2. More literally, siblings, but more than blood relationship, it implies a close and intimate relationship caracterized by loyalty and similar circumstances3. It actually makes more sense in English than in Spanish
