Rock of ages

I just had to post this. There have been so many times I've wanted to stand up in the middle of the Oratory during Latin mass and just shout the first line to everyone there living (if you can call it that) their Stepford lives:

All right, I got something to say: Yeah, it's better to burn out -

THAN FADE AWAY

And yes, I've wanted to rock the damn place down, down to the ground...and occasionally (figuratively) burn it, but only to start again.

Well, the church DOES refer to itself as the Rock of Ages, so it's a perfectly appropriate song to break into in the middle of mass.

What do I want? I want rock 'n' roll.

Yes, I do.

After all, someone has to get into that church and give the Holy Spirit a hand. How? Gonna start a fire...
