I was minding my business lifting some lead off The roof of the Holy Name Church It was worthwhile living a laughable life Just to set my eyes on a blistering sight Of a vicar in a tutu He’s not strange He just wants to live his life this way A scanty bit of a thing with a decorative ring That wouldn’t cover the head of a child As Rose collects the money in the cannister Who comes sliding down the banister The vicar in a tutu He’s not strange He just wants to live his life this way The monkish monsignor with a head full of plaster Said -my man get your vile soul dry-cleaned- As Rose counts the money in the cannister As natural as rain he dances again Vicar in a tutu Oh yeah Oh yeah...                    Vicar in a tutu Oh yeah Oh yeah... The next day in the pulpit with freedom and ease Combating ignorance dust and disease As Rose counts the money in the cannister As natural as raihe dances again and again and again And the fabric of a tutu Any man could get used to And I am a living sign I’m a living sign....     I’m a living sign....

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque la vie d'un vicaire qui semble hors du commun en se produisant dans un tutu, reflétant ainsi une certaine liberté d'expression et un désir de vivre authentiquement. L’artiste nous montre un personnage qui, malgré les jugements des autres et la conformité des attentes, choisit de danser et de s’épanouir comme bon lui semble. La présence d’une fidèle, Rose, souligne l’aspect quotidien de cette scène, entre la collecte des dons et le regard critique d’un supérieur. Dans un cadre où la tradition et la rigueur dominent, le vicaire apparaît comme une figure libérée, cherchant à briser les conventions pour simplement vivre sa vérité. Cette juxtaposition entre le sacré et le ludique interroge notre perception de la normalité et de la vocation.
