[Intro]
People
Don't go to church no more
They're scared
Of acting like fools
They don't
Know what to do at mass
Listen!
The Altar Boyz are gonna lay down the rules
[Chorus 1]
Stand up and sing a hymn to heaven
Stand up and watch the organist play
Stand up and sing a hymn to heaven
Stand up, stand up, stand up today
[Chorus 2]
Kneel and say a prayer to Jesus
Kneel and wash your sins away
Kneel and say a prayer to Jesus
Kneel, kneel, kneel today
[Chorus 3]
Sit down, and listen to the homily
Sit down, and hear what the priest has to say
Sit down, and listen to the homily
Sit down, sit down, sit down today!
[Bridge]
Then the collection plate gets passed at any minute
And when it gets to you, you put some money in it
And at the end of mass, a moment you can savor
You get to look around and shake the hand of your neighbor
Peace be with you, peace be with you, peace be with you, peace be with you
[All three Choruses overlap]
Stand up, Kneel, Sit down
And sing a hymn to heaven/And say a prayer to Jesus/And listen to the homily
Stand up, Kneel, Sit down
And watch the organist play/And wash your sins away/And hear what the priest has to say
Stand up, Kneel, Sit down
And sing a hymn to heaven/And say a prayer to Jesus/And listen to the homily
Stand up, Kneel, Sit down
Stand up, Kneel, Sit down
Stand up, Kneel, Sit down, Today!
Stand up, kneel, sit down, stand up, kneel, sit down, stand up
Kneel, sit down, stand up, kneel, sit down, Stand up, Kneel
Sit down...
Genuflect today!
[Outro]
The Mass is ended, go in peace!
