Artist/Band: Gilbert O'Sullivan
Lyrics for Song: Parrish
Lyrics for Album: Piano Foreplay [2003]



Now Parrish was born on a summer's morn

High up on Salisbury plain

His parents were surprised when he opened his eyes

And said how do You do Parrish is my name



He started in school breaking every rule

Violence was his only relief

For someone so small

To burn down the school hall

Was to him an education that just

couldn't be beat



Throughout every, week of every half a year

Throughout every month of every day

At the age of thirteen

When most boys should still be green

His experience with women was to say the least great



The best way to describe him in later life

Is to go back to where it began

While abducting a Nun

He had suddenly become

Converted from a sinner to a

Godfearing man



Throughout every week of every half a year

Throughout every month of every day

If he gets to be Pope

And who's to say he has no hope

There'll be one hell of a party down

Salisbury way



Incredible though it sounds he still astounds

All those who hear him speak

The man they, used to call

The biggest villain of them all

Former child delinquent now a good

Parish Priest
