Lyrics from "Who's in the House?"
"Hip Hop Hooray in a Catholic Way"
"Like all good homies he had a twelve man posse, 1 called Peter, none called Mossie"
"Up on the hill, people got the munchies, Jesus got the loaves and fish and gave them all their lunchies"
"Born in a stable with a cow and a donkey, born as a towel-head but depicted as a honkey"
