| Parody Song Title: | "Son, You Been 'Preacher'-Scammed" |
| Parody Written by: | John A. Barry |
I heard him "prayin'," Robertson.
He said I was a sinner, and I went along,
But then I listened to what he was talking. . .
Saw he's a shill who takes his flock in.
Then he prayed for one to die
On the court that's so high.
Decided he'll no longer leech me;
I'd been stung by this "preacher's" scam.
Into those pockets he gets reachy.
Many stung by this preacher's scam.
Robertson, he robs, not blessed, he robs
His scam works, although it's sleazy,
So a lot of dough he's pried
Out of sweet folks, flocked to his scheming.
He says you'll go to hell if you're not right,
And he means very, very, very far right.
This man's a very slick parasite.
There's another guy who's also creepy;
He was runnin' a preacher scam.
He'd wake you up if you were sleepy
When he went on a preacher rant,
A nut job, nut job, Wright, Wrong nut job.
Church got many members,
And one of them is a guy
Who is runnin' for office high,
Though it isn't a crime,
He's still defending this slime.
It's disturbing he was going
To listen to this ugly gnome.
There's plenty bums who are schemin', greedy.
Don't get stung by their preacher scam.
They want your mon-ey so they plead needy,
Here's just two bums who're preacher scams
Yes, they're cons, they're cons,
Shining you on.

Nice zinger, and a fair enough "musing" in the penultimate verse. Wouldn't it be nice to get religions--_all_ of'em, and _all_ their deities--out of politics entirely?
lol...great title switch
watch those preacher-Scums . .or THERE COULD BE . . .
Thanks, Stan, Alvin, Cakes.
Good play on words.
You have got a witness.
JB - You forgot to mention the worst of the entire lot of Tele-a-angerists, and that is TBN's Paul Crouch.
