First Amendment; Religion
I would say that I'm a christian
But I'd fear that I'd get sued
I can't say that I'm a christian
Unless I claim that I'm a jew
or a cathelic or a confuscist or a buddhist or hindu
or a daoist or silkhist or jainist or Druze
I cannot be a christian unless I'm a scientologist, too.
I celebrate most every date,
'cause my religions always have stuff to do
It's all the same sermon
whether a muslim or a mormon
and I find all in between this paradox
that if unmentioned would be unorthidox
So evernight five times a day, I pray to all my lords
Jesus, Baal, Buddha, Satan, Zeus, Xenu and Thor
My religion says I should live my life
in peace, and joy and love
but the atheist part of me
says none of the above
We live in a world where we
don't want to make you mad
So to compromise, we recognize
all the religions that we have
But we also live in a world
where everying must be fair
An impossibe phenominaun
that we believe must be here
So live your life uniquely
and remember not to care
if someone states there opinion
please don't point and stare
This Country was founded christian
for it's a land of sky-born mana
and I don't think I'll find Ben Franklin
when I finally reach Nirvana
