Who Ghost Wrote the Ten Commandments?
The First always raises an eyebrow
Are you really that insecure oh creator of the universe
As for the Second, more of the same
Did you just have a bad day when you rested on the seventh
Take away number Three and I'm speechless
When I hit my thumb with a hammer or stub my toe
Surely the Fourth is but a worn out notion
In this frantic world of twenty-four-seven
La Quinta is unrealistic
Given the poor flawed and fractured souls that they are
As for number Six I can proudly say
I was prepared to pull that trigger in Baghdad
With the Seventh I've been particularly naughty
Dipping my wick in both unfaithful husband and wife
Breaking the Eighth happened oh so long ago
Twas delicious until I was caught
The Nineth makes sense to me
I've had no problem with this one
With the Final one I do begin to wonder
Do you really understand that which you made from clay
Dear Lord, if I may be so bold - you forgot the most important one
Number Eleven, be that which the Lord has made and so rejoice in authenticity
