Open Wide the Eye of the Needle

Open Wide The Eye Of The Needle The eye of the needle is enormously large It is made for camels to go through Jesus tells us how easy it is The very rich, when they grow up, enter Pay for their passage into heaven With lots of money invested in gyms Simply becoming very thin is their solution Everything fits with a little effort The wealthy think they can buy anything Special diets and medicine help them win Gain favor with God through vast resources Camels enter the needle first Followed by the elite and aristocrats Poor people don’t need heaven since they are fat God doesn’t need slackers in the after life Someone has to remain on Earth To make more babies to serve the real needy Rich people going through the needle won’t be easy
