No. MacGowan sang with the Popes, but that doesn't mean his father is the pope.

No. I'm not sure what you're thinking of here, unless it's the fact that Geldof is often referred to as Saint Bob.

The word "father" in the question is meant literally, though the relationship is obviously fictional.

Tim Minchin?
He wrote the Pope Song

No...it's because he was the Ratzinger

(Maybe he was originally called Boomtown, and shortened it to Bob?)

No.

He wrote the Pope Song

But that doesn't suggest a father/son relationship.

Ah, I see - very clever. So Bob Geldof was a good answer, even though it's not what I was looking for.

My question refers to the lyrics of a particular song. I was hoping that someone here would be familiar with the song, and would be able to name the singer/songwriter. But if nobody here knows the song, then I'll have to come up with some major hints.

Here's a small hint for now: at the time, the pope was Paul VI.

So it's sometime between 1963 and 1978 if that helps anyone

Another hint: more often a priest than the pope.

'Son of my Father'? Trying to think of another song with a father/son relationship.

I clearly choose too obscure a song in my attempt to find something that wouldn't succumb to the first Google search. But the answer can easily be found with Google anyway - you just need to try some synonyms.

I thought The Fex was Pope round these parts? What the hell happened to The Fex anyway? Is 'Tex Ariox' The Fex under another name? Well? Are you The Fex, Tex?

Sorry, I'm rambling, just ignore me. I'll be offline for a couple of days...have fun!

No. Where did he go to?

If I were the Fex, I would surely not have come up with such a useless question. Its lousiness goes on and on, yes it does.

I think we need some more clues

Tex Ariox · Post by **Tex Ariox** » Sun Sep 26, 2010 8:15 am

My last post contained the big daddy (hint, hint) of all clues, albeit only for the singer, not for the song that the original question referred to.

The clue in this post, by contrast, should lead you to the song itself.
