OLD TIME RELIGION
We will pray to Aphrodite
She's beautiful but flighty
In her silken see-thru nightie
She's good enough for me.
We will pray to Zarathrustra,
Pray just like we used-to,
I'm a Zarathrustra booster,
He's good enough for me.
We will pray just like the Druids,
Drinking strange fermented fluids,
Go dancing naked through the woods,
They're good enough for me.
We will pray to the god Buddha,
Of gods there is none cuter,
Come in silver, brass or pewter,
He's good enough for me.
We will pray with those Egyptians,
Who built pyramids to put our crypts in
Covered up with strange inscriptions,
They're good enough for me.
We will pray to Ra and Ahmen
Just like Tutankhamen,
And teach our friends embalming,
They're good enough for me.
Hare Krishna he must be laughed on,
To see me dressed in saffron,
With my hair only half-on
He's good enough for me.
I will rise up at early morning,
When my Lord gives me the warning,
That the solar age is dawning,
He's good enough for me.
We won't worship like the Persians,
We'll sacrifice no virgins,
Please control your carnal urgin's,
It's good enough for me.
We will all worship the Mother
Not the womb of any other
Virgin, crone and mother
She's good enough for me
We will pray for New Age Aquarians,
And hang out in Planetariums,
Lotta um are Unitarians,
They're good enough for me.
We will pray to a god named Odin,
In their wooden boats go floatin'
Filled Europe with forbodin'
He's good enough for me.
We will pray to the Quakers
Oft confused with the Shakers,
Of war they are not makers,
They're good enough for me.
We will pray to the god Shiva,
the one with many sleeva's
Who destroys all disbelivas
He's good enough for me.
We will pray to rev Moon
All our friend will think we're loony
As we sing this crazy tune-y,
He's good enough for me.
