Those That Tell the Truth

Those That Tell the Truth God wanted to make world that was grand Forever and ever He planned and planned; What if He will put this thing over there? With only one thing you cannot compare. Secret of anything is for you to make two And even thought you will have only a few, Into what category do they both belong? Of twins one is bigger, taller and strong. Good heavens, sex God will have to choose; And some say that if you snoze you lose; So God started to wait until seventh day Which was either Saturday or a Sunday. In some cases, Sunday will be the first For communion and wine if you have a thirst Along with bread an extremely small piece And this on life will give you a new lease. You will have to take all of this in stride Why in world would God want to have lied; Was a big fight between Cane and Able Who were later wise men while in a stable. It is in God who we will always believe First people he made were Adam and Eve He had thought through day and into night Then built Garden of Eden far out of sight. God put people's names on a long label And found out women liked telling a fable Ate fruit from tree which was forbidden Deep in dark forest for long time hidden. Adam said he would die for good piece of pie Then Eve said some of hers he should try; On table from God landed a yellow canary In mouth incredibly was carrying a cheery. Adam asked Eve if anyone there had anymore; Pretty pie had fallen and eventually hit the floor And for a whole while longer Adam had waited; He discovered that pie had been reincarnated. Pie no longer appeared to be the same And a cheery one it had just became But people lived in a place that was Papal They all preferred their pie to be an apple. Washington never would ever tell a lie Cherries in White House were in short supply; Cut down cheery tree and again he had not lied There was a present for him somewhere inside. This is when George was put to the test After he had opened an old ice chest Looked inside and all that he could see Was cherries and debris from the cheery tree. Washington's great plan had been well laid And for it no American would want to trade Pulled out lovely laptop and he read a tweak There are enough cherry pies for a whole week.
