The Boston Bunch.
To the tune of you-know-what:
Here's the story/ 
Of some lousy bishops/ 
Who were too busy covering up priestly faults/ 
They all were unconcerned/ 
'Bout being shepherds/ 
They had to save the vaults. 
Here's the story/ 
Of a man named Bernard/ 
Who was supposed to watch over 
This deeply sinful crew/ 
But he could not recall/ 
A single foul-up/ 
T'was nothing he could do. 
Till the one day the ordained 
Met all the lawyers/ 
And they learned "ain't no such 
thing as a free lunch"/ 
In truth, they'd now have to pay the piper/ 
That's the way they all became the Boston Bunch. 
The Boston Bunch/The Boston Bunch/ 
That's the way they became the Boston Bunch.

Be reasonably civil. Ire alloyed with reason is fine. But slagging the host gets you the banhammer.
