What’s to be done about Mary?
What’s to be done about
The state they say she’s in
Such a crying shame
To scandalise a good family name
What’s to be done about Mary?

What’s to be done about Joseph
What’s he gonna do about
A misbegotten child
And no one wants to take a tainted bride
What’s to be done about Mary?

Na na na na

What’s to be done about mercy?
What’s to be done about the dream
I dreamed last night?
What’s to be done when I look in her eyes
And she says ‘Please believe me’
And when he grows up whose face will I see
Looking back at me?
What’s to be done about Mary?

What’s to be done about the baby, Mary’s baby
Who’s going to cradle him and give him sanctuary
Joseph make your move
No one else but you can choose
What’s to be done about Mary?
What’s to be done about mercy?
