Hi Guys, never got taught Latin so has anyone got a clue what the choir sing on J. Smith translates into?

Salve, pia anima
Labor tuus nunc ad terminum
Sed, per deos, vade retro!
Nomen nesquam video
Carbo in culo in aeternitatem
Placet satanae te verdere!

Cheers x

Cheers mate... I knew it would mean tons of traipsing through old threads to find it.. good effort at translating it by the way... but still doesn't mean much to me! Maybe the weird lyrics are why they sang it in latin :)

From a interview with Fran:
J.smith is not having a good day and dies. He goes to heaven, (i think this is where the choir comes in) at first he is welcomed, but then the angels says that he is not on the guestlist, and they send him to hell.
But hell send him back to earth, so earh is hell for poor J. Smith.
Not a good day at all:)

I hate the Latin. At school I studied the Latin for 3 years...fortunately I forgot almost all the words!!!
