The Pharisees the Pharisees,
they always washed their hands.
They sought respectabilities
from people in the lands.
The Pharisees the Pharisees,
with crook that oversees
a flock, they used instead to ring the knell
on souls they damned to hell.
Then Jesus Christ our Lord
went up the temple steps.
He wound Himself a cord,
purged the temple to its depths.
When with this zeal-filled token
He had cleaned the temple out,
He gave His Body to be broken,
so that His Blood ran out.
