Angel's Holiday (Part Two)
Continued from Angel's Holiday (Part One)
And than there was the time in the Lion's den
You know the one Daniel was in
He was suppose to feed the lions extra meat
Instead he brought vegetables for their treat
Again Gabriel stood his ground
So in the morning the prophet could still be found
And when the Babylonians were at the gate
The Holy Ark with it he was suppose to escape
But instead under the Temple Mount he drops it
Lost forever unless the Knights Templar got it
Poor Bob not a feather for a wing
He just can't seem to do the simplest of things
And what about all those souls
Whose earnest prayers he forgot on holds
And did he forget for Abraham
To deliver a pig and not a ram
And now the Jews can't eat ham
And did he tell Noah about his boat
I bet my wings she'll never float
And didn't he show Eve the apple tree
And when he saw the snake he said live and let it be
Could his intellect be more profound and deeper?
Did he not advise Cain of Abel you're not your brother's keeper?
Bob's intentions are good he tries real hard
But like a Kennedy he can't seem to pass the bar
So after working without a break
It was time for Bob's vacation for goodness sake
He deserves his time of rest
To help him relax so he can return at his best
And now you understand my predicament and situation
There's only three days left before the end of Bob's vacation
So Lord if you would if you could please
Give me another guardian angel when I'm on bended knees
It's not that I'm not grateful and give thanks
But frankly Angel Bob is all fuss and just stinks
Promote him with halo and wings of gold
Push him to Calss A if I could be so bold
But just don't let him pass the Trumpet of Judgement Day
Because I'm sure he would blow it and send Doom on our way
It's not that in Heaven I would not like to go
It's just on earth I would like to know
What it is like to have an angel who's smart and likes to play
So please keep Bob on a permanent Angel's Holiday
