The pope had ordered the bacon silverware too late in Spiez

De Papscht hät z’Spiez s’Speck B’steck z’spot b’stellt (deutsch - english)

Recently I told a message from the whole wide world

Being, that the pope had ordered the bacon silverware too late, in Spiez.

And at first I thought, how?

Just what is the pope doing in Spiez?

But then again, he did travel to Switzerland on some occasions before,

Because Switzerland, on some occasions, as you know

Has a special kind of appeal,

Because of the delicacies that you can

Eat everywhere over there

In Bern for example, there are pastries

And in Spiez it's bacon

That will only taste truly delicious,

If you eat it with bacon silverware,

Because only with the bacon silverware, the bacon

Will be activated perfectly.

The problem in many cases

Is that you have to order it separately.

Yes, and sadly the pope failed to notice,

And when he noticed uh the silverware,

And he ordered it oh what a mishap,

The silverware had just gone missing.

Then even the pope had to admit,

If you are tardy, life will punish you

Which can be applied to the entire catholic church, really

Because it is also tardy quite often

What the church does and doesn't do

Is it's own story. One thing is for sure

The bacon justifies the means.
