Baby Jesus's Stuffed Animal

Baby Jesus lay away in a manger The three wise brothers brought him gold Have you ever heard of the story of the stranger? That brought the young pip an animal of cold This stuffed animal was made with the remains of religion Cuddly and fluffy like the feeling of tonic and gin Sewn together with the hair of Jewish corpses For he will die one day for their future sins Or so they say......... The little baby Jesus tossed away his gold Did not give a sh#t for the jewelry and the mold He gravitated to this one eyed plush of spun As the tag on his foot replaced with "Made from Taiwan" Baby Jesus would call this animal of odd By the name he knew only of his father of "God" As Mary closed her legs and removed her cigarette She asked why? to the stranger as he shook his head "If this is the boy of the God of it all? Why is he white? When we know that they are "small" I figured I would bring him a toy with one eye For one is enough for a small gifted guy" The leader of the nation or better yet the world Should be endowed to enjoy all the girls I give him a bear with the remains of "his" kind As a reminder that he will never be mine As I draw a line in the sand to choose The line you see drawn is from the middle of my shoes The footsteps on both sides are not from him carrying me They are mine as I walk to my religion of ecstasy Enjoy your bear Jesus, I will enjoy life
