LYRICS:
(Solo Max)
The 8th century, a shame for papacy
Formosus took the ministry illegally
Too bad he died not convicted for his crime
So Stephen the sixth ripped him from his crypt
Down in peaceful darkness
They ended his eternal sleep
Pope Stephen VI:
“Set up the trial for a living dead”
The holy father said:
Pope Stephen VI:
“Dig him uuup!
I am the sword of reprisal
Even death can't save you from
Up from the grave
Receive the penalty for your perjury!”
Just skin and bone, he was set on the papal throne
By holy decree, he was found guilty
Degraded, mutilated, buried in a potter's field
Pope Stephen VI:
“Usurpers and thiefs shall never find their peace!”
Down in unhallowed ground
They ended his sleep once again
Still brooding on revenge, the holy father said:
Pope Stephen VI:
“I am not finished yet:”
Pope Stephen VI:
“Dig him uuup!
I am the sword of reprisal
Even death can't save you from
Up from the grave
Receive the penalty for your perjury!”
Defiled again, another desecration by the holy one
Ripped from the grave and cast into the Tiber's waves
(Solo Katte)
Pope Stephen VI:
“Dig him uuup!
I am the sword of reprisal
Even death can't save you from
Up from the grave
Receive the penalty for your perjury!”
Up from the grave
To pay the price for all your lies!”
