So Bishop Dow has told us

And Jim Jones thinks so too.

Flooding is the curse of god

for the naughtiness we do.


To these brain dead barmy Bishops

It all seems clear as day.

The good lord sends his rain on

the decadent and gay.


So, by this godly logic

AIDS is vengeance too

The kid born blind is paying

for the sins of God knows who.


Their Jesus, who died for our sins,

has not quite done the job.

We'd better have him back once more

and nail him up again.


No, that is really loony

Just like the Bishops are.

The weather's down to physics

Not the whims of Gods afar.
