Patriotism prayer

Joe Hart


At the Catholic costume party
The Pope dressed up like a clown,
And two airplanes went up
And two buildings fell down.
And we got “what we deserve”
Jerry Falwell said.
And the Reverend W. Bush
Bowed his head.
And the people hung their flags out
And asked for heaven’s pity
While all night long it rained
In New York City.
It rained upon the rubble
And it rained upon the diggers.
And Jesus loves just everyone
But heathens, queers and niggers.
And the Vatican spoke out
To avert a war.
The Church does not burn witches
Anymore.
