G             C                 G
How dare you wear a robe to preside
G             C                  G
How dare you cover your head to hide
G           D   D7
Your face from God

How dare you smile from behind your beard
To hide the fact that your hearts are feared
And wave your rod

Chorus:
     C                        G
How dare you be the one to assess
 C                      G
Me in this godforsaken mess
 C                        D
You, a man in a purple dress
   C                G
A man in a purple dress

When you place your frown
Between my God and prayer
However grand your crown

Or dignified your hair
Men above men all prats
In your high hats

Chorus:
You priest, you mullah so high
You pope, you wise rabbi
You're invisible to me
Like vapor from the sea

I lovingly mock you noble lords
We all dress up to grand awards
I do that as well

Chorus:
I dare condemn your fashion sense
At least you're not astride the fence
That wouldn't sell
That wouldn't sell

But I will deliver this address:
Your soul's condition don't impress
You, a man in a purple dress
A man in a purple dress
