Cathedral




At this Cathedral, we treat you like fools, by taking your cash at the door.
But as you look round, you can't make a sound, as you walk about on our floor.
Taking money each time you enjoy the sublime, but cameras and photos are banned,
we give the reason 'to do so is treason' , we have our excuses well planned.


Yet our tourist book that you bought for a look, had photographs taken for sale,
our principles vary, so you should be wary, we'll make your enjoyment go stale.
We treat you so lightly, as we are too mighty, too holy for pictures we say,
no tourist attraction for such rowdy action, but we say this after you pay.


Our principles falter up high on the altar, we don't want to spite you outside,
and so we begin once we let you in, we really take you for a ride.
Some of our staff are too snobby to laugh, instead they are hostile and glum,
we don't mind being rude as we watch you get screwed,
your cash doesn't make you our chum.
