Preacher on the tube, crying Lord, there's evil in this land.
"Rock and roll music!. . ."
Cast down these dope-fiends and their noisy bands.
"Damn their souls!"
Preacher preaching love like vengeance Preaching love like hate Calling for large donations Promising estates Rolling lawns and angel bands Behind the pearly gates He will have his in this life, but Yours'll have to wait.
He's immaculately tax-free. . .
But tonight I'm going dancing with the drag queens and the punks. Big beat deliver me from this sanctimonious skunk. We're no flamin' angels, but he's not Heaven-sent. How can he speak for the Prince of Peace when he's hawk-right militant?
He's immaculately tax-free. . .

There's probably no need to parody Rick Perry but it's funny to watch anyways.
ReplyDeleteEven complete idiots that share Rick Perry's values idiots think Rick Perry is a complete idiot. That takes some doing.
