The Reformation Polka
By Richard Gebel (Sung to the tune of "Supercalifragilistic-expialidocious") When I was just ein junger Mann I studied canon law; while Erfurt was a challenge, it was just to please my Pa. Then came the storm, the lightning struck, I called upon Saint Anne. I shaved my head, I took my vows, an Augustinian! Oh… […]
