 God never really did like man anyway
At least
not after they started walking around
On their
hind leg(s)
And talking on the telephone
Of
course poor God's point of view wasn't easy now
(to) understand
He had invented man from dead
things
At that time there were no grave yards
to rob
So He had been forced to use dead
worms, some sea weed
That had laid out on the
beach for quite a while
For quite a
while.
At that time man had four legs and no
telephone
A major mistake came when God
decided that man should think
(A trait that
He'd long desired for Himself)
What God no
doubt intended was
For man to think about
Him
And that was important because
God just
wanted to be
Just another normal deity
Deity
Deity Ty Ty Ty Ty Ty
All that God wanted to
be
Was just a normal deity
All that God
wanted to be
Was just another normal
deity
All that God wanted to be
Was just a
deity
Just a normal deity
All that God
wanted to be
Just a normal deity
All that
God wanted to be
Just a normal deity
All
went well for quite a while
Man was a
wonderful creature
With long rich engraved
face
Four fine legs ending in five
mini-legs
And a coat of satiney hair
And
large genitals
His thoughts were pure
and
Full of wonder
The wonder part was
God's favorite,
(at least at first)
Because
that's the part that gave Him
His Identity
Identity Identity Identity
Oh, it was so
wonderful for God
Man's... Man's questions
turned to visions
And visions gave God
All
kinds of exciting things to do
Someday He
would be a God of wrath
Reeking havoc upon
undiscipline mankind
And at other times He'd
be a God of love and compassion
Of course
these were all things that man had invented
So
God had a hard time getting the full
grasp
But...
One of His favorite
things
Was man's believing in Him, and then
not believing in Him
One of His favorite
things
Was man's believing in Him, and then
not believing in Him
Believing in Him, Not
believing in Him
...Believing in Him, Not
believing in Him
.......Believing in Him, Not
believing in Him
...........Believing in Him,
Not believing in Him
...............Believing
in Him, Not believing in
Him
...................Believing in Him, Not
believing in
Him
.......................Believing in Him,
Not believing in
Him
...........................Believing in
Him, Not believing in
Him
...............................Believing
in Him, Not believing in
Him
...................................Believing
in Him, Not believing in
Him
.......................................Like
some hide and seek
game
...................................Over
...............................And
...........................Over
.......................And
...................Over
and Over
...............Believing in
Him
...........Believing in
Him
.......Believing in Him
...Not
believing in Him...
Not believing in Him?
I
think He liked believing in Him much
better...
But I'm not
sure...
