Some take the bible For what it's worth When it says that the meek Shall inherit the earth Well, I heard that some sheik Has bought New Jersey last week 'N you suckers ain't gettin' nothin' Is hare rama really wrong If you wander around With a napkin on With a bell on a stick An' your hair is all gone (The geek shall inherit nothin') You say yer life's a bum deal 'N yer up against the wall Well, people, you ain't even got no kinda Deal at all Cause what they do In Washington They just takes care of number one An' number one ain't you You ain't even number two Those Jesus freaks Well, they're friendly but The shit they believe Has got their minds all shut An' they don't even care When the church takes a cut Ain't it bleak when you got so much nothin' (So whaddya do? Hey!) Eat that pork Eat that ham Laugh till ya choke On billy graham Moses, aaron 'n abraham They're all a waste of time 'N it's your ass that's on the line (It's your ass that's on the line) Do what you wanna Do what you will Just don't mess up Your neighbor's thrill 'N when you pay the bill Kindly leave a little tip And help the next poor sucker On his one way trip Some take the bible (Aw gimme a half a dozen for the hotel room!)
