If.....

Have A listen...:)


if we make the rules
and we’re in control
if all we can lose
is an empty soul….....
1-then why should I be loyal
if none are greater than me
what is there to obey
but my own vanity
2-I’ll claim my own image
my name shall be adored
and be equal to my pride
an idol for the world
3-I’ll assume authority
by all that is divine
disregarding ancient truth
and claim all wisdom is mine
4-my desire will drive me
on fortunes’ endless quest
drunk on the wine of fame
my greed will never rest
5-my parents I will blame
the elders I will scorn
for holding me to task
from the day I was born
6-I’ll be free to live my life
loving all who follow me
hating all who criticize
and all who came before me
7-I’ll marry whom I choose
and love all whom I will
I’ll command an army of flesh
to march just for the thrill
8-I’ll tear down all the walls
and open all the cages
liars, thieves, and friends in need
loyal to freedoms’ wages
9-the lie will be the truth
the truth will be for sale
I’ll revel in inequity
and deny the fires of hell
10-and all will serve my pleasure
and covet what they see
I’ll bear witness to every lust
and keep them enthralled to me
if we make the rules
and we’re in control
if all we can lose
is an empty soul….....

Mohammed is looking nervous.... :)

Mohammed is looking nervous
He needs a place to hide
He stole a Bible from the motel
Where he drank and partied all night

It’s his first time in the States
His first time with a girl
His first taste of whiskey
His first time in the world

But Allah does not forgive
Says the Ayatollah
So Mohammed stops to ponder
With an ice cold Coca Cola

These people seem so happy
They even smile when they complain
But Islam says they’re evil
Surely freedom can’t be to blame

But my Imam won’t understand
And my parents will disown me
My brothers will turn their heads
While neighbors try to stone me

Mohammed grips his Bible
Eyes wide with fright
Makes a dash for the bathrooms
But turns left instead of right

A tatooed girl with a gun
Stops him in his tracks
She says, “Don’t cause any trouble now,
Just take a breath and relax..”

If you’re feeling confused
The Pope says that’s OK
Lady GaGa and Marilyn Manson
Say we’re all born that way

Nervous and embarrassed
He ducks into a stall
Where he finds his name and number
Written on the girls room wall

Aghast, he drops his Bible
Open and in plain view
That old familiar passage
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you….... :)
