A Life of Uncompleted Jobs

It has been a short - lived career, Former ones tried on Black Maria; To soon start bearing A Pariah, His story the same in Syria, Which he had judged land of Moriah, Jesus Christ leaving for Sharia Stopped prayers for his Diarrhoea A life of uncompleted jobs With a strong heart that dully throbs Two eyes that wouldn't see the snubs And a right hand that nostrils rubs It's a Jimmy Cliff's Foolish Pride, So the setbacks he'd swept aside With a radio as tireless As its system is wireless Reaching station of the tactless For the funny and humorless.
