Hallo Dieter,

er war der höchste Vertreter der Church of the Holy Spook.

Mit 4 Jahren haben sie ihm zum ersten mal Bier gegeben. Mit sechs hat er zwei Pints getrunken. Der Alkoholismus wurde ihm quasi in die Wiege gelegt.

Wie man mit diesem Dauerzustand Lieder und Arrangements für die Ewigkeit schreiben kann ist mir völlig unklar.
Das Weihnachtslied aller Weihnachtslieder wirst Du sicher kennen.

The Church of the Holy Spook

My Daddy was a sinner, but my
Mother was a saintly person
But I ruined my life by drinking
Bad wives, taking pills and cursing
Rock and roll you crucified me
Left me all alone
I never should have turned my back
On the old folks back at home
Give me that Church of the Holy
Spook, Church of the Holy Spook
Church of the Holy Spook it's good
Enough for me
I was good for my dear old Daddy
And my dear old Mammy too
Give me that Church of the Holy
Spook, I don't need nothing new
I believe in the Church of the Holy Spook, I
Believe that he's in me
The Tao is like a river, so float along with me
When the sacred blood of the Holy Ghost is
Boiling in my veins
I think of Jesus on the cross and I
Scream out for his pain
