The Scent of Water Not Recommended For Competition

While driving along, just after Mass
Father McGee drove a bit fast
But the person he passed, at eighty two
Was Sergeant O'Mally all dressed in blue
The Father pull over and it didn't take long
To see the cops cruiser with all it's lights on
McGee rolled his window, down ready to talk
As O'Mally got out and cautiously walked

When O'Mally leaned down to question McGee
He smelled something wrong, poked his head into see
"Have you been drinking" the Cop entertained
"Only water, that's Holy, McGee did explain
Then both looking down, what lie on the floor, 
An empty wine bottle, there two, maybe more
"WATER" replied The Cop with a grin
McGee then declared, "Christ's done it Again"
