Intro

    

Verse

You know how us Catholic girls can be, hey-ay hey-ay-yay-ay
We make up for so much time, a little too late    
I never forgot it, confusing as it was, no fun with no guilt feelings
The sinners, the saviours, the loveless priests, I'll see you next Sunday

Chorus

We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to, so we did

Verse

I sang Alleluia in the choir, I, Alleluia, luia, luia
I confessed my darkest deeds to an envious man    
My brothers, they never went blind for what they did but I may as well have
In the name of the Father, the Skeptic and the Son I had one more stupid question

Chorus

We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to, so we did

Bridge

What I learned I rejected but I believe again
I will suffer the consequence of this inquisition
If I jump in this fountain will I be forgiven 

Chorus

We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to, so we did
We all had delusions in our head
We all had our minds made up for us
We had to believe in something, so we did
We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thi-i-ing to learn
We all needed something to cling to, so we did

Outro

So we did... Oooh yi yi so we did
