The Ladies of the Temple

Each Sunday you find them at every church at least one in every pew The ladies of the temple where visits from God are few They enter in dressed to the nines their flashy clothes are worn And beneath each painted face you find a heart that’s cold and scorned Make sure you never cross them for there is hell to pay If the ladies of temple have a bone to pick your way The stories that so many tell about problems that arise When revenge is sought and payments brought can offer ones demise Don’t let their sweet words fool you for the meaning behind the voice Will bring a victim to their knees in prayer before the Lord I say this now to warn each one for I was once in twine The curse brought down upon my head outweighed the great divine To all out there who know too well heed the warning in these words Please do not mess with ladies dressed to kill now you are warned Each out for blood each out to hurt every living soul of man I say this from a compassionate view take heed these words have said For hell it hath no fury making Satan’s life look simple A mistake I made when I failed to praise the ladies of the temple
