J Clarbis Reilly is a resident praise-song writer at The Gruel Hymn Factory. This is his latest. I guess you'll all know the tune.
Beboppaloobah! He's my Baby
Beboppaloobah! Don't mean maybe!
Beboppaloobah! He's my Baby now!
Got me a sweet Lord, in the cradle
Dishing out salvation with a big ladle,
Beboppaloobah! He's my Baby now!
Just like Krishna, Buddha, the Big Thumb!
He'll haul me up to the great Kingdom-Come
Beboppaloobah! He's my Baby now!
Wow! Mary, you've got a real cool Boy-Child!
He's gonna turn old Caiphas real wild!
Beboppaloobah! He's my Baby now!
He'll lead us all in the coolest dance - oh
Like Sidney Carter wrote in "Lord of the dance", so
Beboppaloobah! He's my Baby now!
Wonderfully tender and caring, and above all, relevant! And one in the eye for the traddies!
ReplyDeleteWow! The Grrrls are gonna love this one for the Liturgical Dance In Solidarity With Single Gay Households and Alternative Expressions of Agape in Humanistic Relevance we've got scheduled for the Holy Archangels on 29 September! Such profundity!

Father Skippy, Man, your heart-warming praise has made my day, cuz I am J Clarbis Reilly!
DeleteI just wish I could be with y'all in your Liturgical Dance In Solidarity With Single Gay Households and Alternative Expressions of Agape in Humanistic Relevance. It's gotta be a gas!
Gotta go now! Gotta work on some new Carols for the festive season.
