my god is fame

    
     my god is fame
        i shall not rest  
    ‘til the world regards me 
        as the very best

    not content
       to badmouth my rivals
    i seek to eliminate
       their chance for survival 

    my publicity stunts
       are beyond outrageous
    my penchant for perversity
       most find contagious 

     yea, though some folks are jealous
        and seek my death
     i’ll relish my time in the spotlight
        ‘til my very last breath



  ~ Try chanting this to the rhythm of 'The Lord's Prayer,' Psalm 23 ~
