[Verse 1]
Christina the Astonishing lived a long, long time ago
She was stricken with a seizure at the age of twenty-two
They took her body in a coffin to a tiny church in Liege
Where she sprang up from the coffin just after the Agnus Dei
She soared up to the rafters, perched on a beam up there
Cried, "The stink of human sin, the stink of human sin
The stink is more than I can bear"
[Chorus]
And I said oh, oh
Oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Christina the Astonishing was the most astonishing of all
She prayed balanced on a hurdle or curled up into a ball
She fled to remote places, climbed towers and trees and walls
To escape the stench of corruption, the stench of human corruption
Into an oven she did crawl
[Chorus]
And I said oh, oh
Oh, oh
[Verse 3]
Christina the Astonishing behaved in a terrifying way
She would run wildly through the streets, jump in the Meuse and swim away
Christina the Astonishing behaved in terrifying manner
Died at the age of seventy-four, died at the age of seventy-four
In the Convent of St. Anna
