Snake's Legs

When snakes had legs and love was free, A man called Adam climbed a tree. Although he knew the act was banned, He plucked an apple with his hand. In Eden you could always find, Delicious fruits of every kind. And everyone of them were free, Except the apples on this tree. A snake you see, the curse of man, Had swayed the mind of his woman. His partner Eve had tried it all, Except this luscious juicy ball. But God had made it very clear, He was the one you had to fear. There is one thing you should not do, ”This tree is mine, and not for you!” When battle rages in man’s mind, To do what’s right for all mankind. A woman’s will, will then prevail, No matter if it makes him fail. So Adam plundered to his fate, His woman said she could not wait. He plucked the fruit to his demise, No matter that it was unwise. Now God’s authority was broke, They’d disobeyed the words he spoke. He told them both to go away, And closed his garden from that day. So Eve and Adam, duly clothed, Now left that place they’d been betrothed. And found a world so large and free, Where they could climb just any tree. The snake of course had lost it’s legs, Because he put God’s power to test. By tempting woman in this way, He’d had an awful price to pay. But God it was, who came off worse, His power was gone, and even worse. A ‘woman’ had defeated him, By making man commit this sin. So women now will rule the land, Not God, or men you understand? For women conquer all they see. While God enjoys ‘snakes legs’ for tea!
