''(Saint C)'' You know, it's time you faced the news ''(Cecilia)'' Blessed lady, nobody ever dug your blues ''(Back, back)'' Back, back, you slipped the cracks Click, clack, my God, she's back on track ''(CeeCee)'' CeeCee, why'd you paint us black? ''(Look back)'' All the time, you stabbed our back, and that's a fact ''Whoo!'' How she ever got her sainthood Kind of never made no sense, m-hmm Two strikes in her favor And eighty-eight strikes against Squandered her credentials Guzzling canned heat with the boys, yeah She said she heard sweet, sweet music But all she was hearing was noise ''(Cecilia)'' Cecilia, I never dug your trip, ooh ''(Cecilia)'' Cecilia, is that a vapor on your lip?
