Many years ago a friend informed me of just how wicked the lyrics of Billy Joel songs really are. I have kept that in mind for many years but never really looked into it for myself. Just beginning to peer into it one sees a lost and disturbed soul very possibly possesed. Yes, his songs have very catchy tunes. So catchy that when I was a boy I used to dance around my room when certain ones of his songs would come on the radio. And they were so filthy antiCatholic!
We decided to make a post about this because we are sure there are both souls who have never heard of this and souls who know far more than ourselves and may enlighten us on some aspects such as the meaning of the nonsense song "Piano man" by (of course) Billy Joel.
As with so much of modern music the lyrics are totally ignored and with this guy it is cleverly designed as his tune captures you before you can THINK about what he is saying.
I turn our business radio off every time "only the good die youg" comes on. I showed a co worker the lyrics today and she was appalled although she isn't Catholic.
If the Catholic Church wasn't in such a crisis this man would probably bemaking an honest living somewhere.
Here are the words of his song "Only the good die young" .... brace yourself if you never read these lyrics before...
"Come out, Virginia- Don't let me wait. You Catholic girls start much too late. Ah! But sooner or later it comes down to fate. I might as well will be the one.
Well they showed you a statue-Told you to pray.They built you a temple and locked you away.Ah! But they never told you the price it would pay.The things that you might have done...
Only the good die young.That's what I said!Only the good die young.Only the good die young...
You mighta heard I run with a dangerous crowd.We ain't too pretty, we ain't too proud.We might be laughin' a bit too loud.Ah! But that never hurt no one...
So come on Virginia!Show me a sign-Send up a signal; I'll throw you a line.The stained glass curtain you're hidin' behind-Never lets in the sun...
Darlin' only the good die young!Oh woe woe woe woe!I tell ya only the good die young.Only the good die young...
You got a nice white dress and a party on your confirmation!You've got a brand new soul.Mmm, and a cross of gold.But Virginia they didn't give you quite enough information!
You didn't count on me-When you were counting on your rosary. Oh woe woe!
And they say there's a Heaven,[ From:

The sinners are much more fun...You know that only the good die young!Oh woe woe baby bay!I tell ya only the good die young!Only the good die young...
Said your mother told you all that I could give you was a reputation!Ah! She never cared for me.But did she ever say a prayer for me?Oh woe woe!
Come out, come out, come out!Virginia don't let me wait!You Catholic girls start much too late!Sooner or later it comes down to fate.I might as well will be the one...You know that only the good die young!
Tell ya baby!You know that only the good die young!Only the good die young.Only the gooood!Only the good die young.
Oo oo oooo Oo!Oo oo oo oo Oooo oo!Oo oo oo Oo!Oo oo oo oo Oooo oo!Oo oo oooo Oo!Oo oo oo oo Oooo oo!
Only the good die young!Only the good die young..."
Sorry about the rotten copy. Let's pray for Billy Joel.
