Paltry Parishioners

PALTRY PARISHIONERS When evil wins the battle with and over good When my wickedness rids the world of the righteousness for sin Mr., that’s when I’ll arrive in the right neighborhood And sister, that’s when the true darkness in my heart will begin I’ve been sinning for a lifetime and will until I die While all you phoolish choose to phollow a fairy tale Oh poor Jesus shed His blood so they want me to cry Well as for me the only time I cry is when I can’t make bail I’ve been beaten down and beaten up in the name of your Lord Because He ain’t done nothing to prove to this junkie that he’s real All I am surrounded by is depression, deprivation and discord And what if I’m correct and Satan is the real deal? Then what the hell are all you parishioners going to do? Will you bow to the father of evil after discovering that which is true? Because at this tumultuous time Satan’s followers are more than a few And his army is growing and I know because I was once just like you I have read The Testaments, both the old and the new And I don’t give a damn that Jesus was nailed to a cross of wood I know not when father Satan will vanquish religion and God too But when he does I want him to be my landlord in my bad neighborhood © 2010.….free cee!
