Historical Song Parodies

"Pope Leo"

Parody To Adele's "Hello"
A Historical Song Parody

Pope Leo, it's me, I was wondering.
If after all these years you'd like to meet to go over reformation
They say that indulgence supposed to heal, yeah
But I ain't done much healing

Pope Leo, can you hear me?
I'm in Barcelona dreaming about who we used to be
When we were younger and free
I've forgotten how it felt before the church fell at your feet
There's such a difference between us
And a million miles

Hello from the lutheran side
I must've written a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry, for everything that I've said
But when I write you never seem to be home

Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry, for breaking your church
But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore

Pope Leo, how are you?
It's so typical of me to talk about my church, I'm sorry
I hope that you're well
Did you ever make it out of that group where nothing ever happened?
It's no secret
That the both of us are running out of time
So hello from the lutheran side
I must've wrote a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry, for everything that I've broke
But when I write you never seem to be home

Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry, for breaking your church
But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore
Ooh, anymore
Ooh, anymore
Ooh, anymore
Anymore...

Hello from the lutheran side
must've wrote a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry, for everything that I've broke
But when I write you never seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry, for breaking your church
But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore

The History Behind the Song

This parody is Martin Luther years after reformation is completed and the Catholic Church is broken up. At this time Martin Luther is talking back to the Pope of the Roman Catholic faith, Martin is apologizing for what he did to the church but is giving the Catholic Church a check up during the song, because of the success of Martin Luther he feels bad for Pope Leo X.
