Lucifer Aint It Funny How Scott Always Seems 2 Get Off Free Ohh Father

Ain't it Funny how

Lucifer once said to his father 

Some certain individuals 

No matter how guilty they are 

Or evidence doth incriminate them

Always seem to get off 

Scott Free

Enough said

Mic Drop

That's all I wished to say

As i am currently off to serve

Scott's sentence now 

So due to this unavoidable catastrophe and travesty of justice

I will be most unfortunately out of commission for
the a wee foreseeable while

Hope to be back and see you soon

I'll be back 

All depends on if I am prepared to change 

And i manage to get parole for good behavior

With again

Ohh so Devilishly glint and glimmer in his eye

Trying his level best not to crack a Smile

Whilst all the while chocking up way
down deep inside

Looking most angelic as if he could sprout
wing's from underneath the ethereal
glowing hallo eminent above his saintly
head

Like butter wouldn't melt on any given
Sunday given up for lent

Premium Member Santa's Mission

Santa knew he had a special mission
To make sure Putin's out of commission
With his sleigh of dynamite
Disguised as presents tonight
Down Putin's chimney upon ignition

Premium Member Missus Claus's Fear

Santa Claus departs with his wife in fear
Not occasionally, but every year,
That he’ll slip and fall
And breaking his jaw,
Put himself out of commission, Oh dear!

Premium Member Walks Dogs For a Living

My granddaughter walks dogs for a living
So you'd think she'd be in control, that's a given
Was walking five at one time
A fight broke out, got intertwined
Was bitten causing blood putting her out of commission

My Friend

She's not who you think she is

"Then tell me who is she?"

Shes lost, she wont feel this

"Why are you telling this to me?"

I'm telling you so you'll listen

"Aren't you supposed to be a Christian?"

I am, but your face will glisten

"Your crazy, out of commission"

I'm warning you of tears

"But she is the one for me"

Pay attention, open your ears

"You cant tell me what WILL be!"

But i will tell you the truth
As hard as it may sound

"Whatever i wont listen
Go away your not earning your crown"

-- 
My friend and i were talking
And that is what we said
Then one day I'm walking
I realize the truth he spread

As the end of this approached
My friend and i drew nearer
He was always trying to coach
My friend was in the mirror
