I am sorry, but this makes no sense at all in English. "Proselyte" is a singular noun describing a person who converts from one belief system to another. I think the verb form you are looking for is "proselytize".

No... no, no need to thank me. Just send money. If you go back and correct that you will have three lines that make sense. Oh and "proselytize" is more properly spelled "proselytise" for we of the UK school background.

Thanks.

Yeah, but grammar and punctuation are rather free-form in song lyrics

The grammer didn't bother me as much as the Goldie Hawn reference. Her daughter is a hotter commodity in Hollywood than she. Goldie Hawn is soooo 30 years ago. lol

Yes true, but then it is relevant because when the "watch TV and you'll split hell" people started really gearing up she was the real deal.

I understand them being stuck there.

She has a daughter?

What would be evil about
Christ's Mass
and
the birth of the sun god around the time of the solstice?

Kate Hudson is her daughter. Was married to one of the Counting Crowes for a few years.
