Welcome to the QUENTIN ROBERT DE NAMELAND VIDEO CHAPEL OF ECONOMIC WORSHIP!

Some take THE BIBLE
For what it's worth
When it says that THE MEEK
Shall inherit THE EARTH
Well, I heard that some Sheik
Has bought New Jersey last week
'N you suckers ain't getting DOODLY!

Is all de MAMMYS really wrong
If we's wandring aroun'
With de nakkin on?
Big ol' lips like a duck
While we's singing dis song
(EVIL PRINCE, people, he cain't do NOTHIN'!)

You say yo' life a 'BUM DEAL'
'N yo' 'UP AGAINST DE WALL'?
Well, people, you ain't got no kinda
'DEAL' at all!

Now de shit dey be doing
Down in WASHINGTUM

Dey just takes care

Dey taking care

O' 'NUMBER ONE,'

O' 'NUMBER ONE'!

An' 'NUMBER ONE' ain't YOU!

Oh no! It ain't YOU or YOU!

YOU ain't even 'NUMBER TWO'!

(Push de button, pull dat chain
Out come dat lil' brown
Choo-choo train!)

Those Jesus-FREAKS
Well, they're friendly, BUT
The SHIT they BELIEVE
Has got their minds ALL SHUT

An' they don't even CARE
When 'THE CHURCH' takes a 'CUT'!
(Ain't it BLEAK when you've got so much
NOTHIN'?)

Wohhhhhh, so whaddya do?

EAT that PORK!
'N EAT that HAM!
Laugh till ya choke
On BILLY GRAHAM!
BROWN MOSES, AARON, 'n ABRAHAM:
They're ALL a waste of TIME
'N it's YOUR ASS that's ON THE LINE!

Wohhhhhh, heah me talking to ya, now
IT'S YOUR ASS THAT'S ON THE LINE!

Do what you WANNA

Ohh! Do what ya wanna!

Do WHAT YOU WILL

Do what you will!

Just DON'T MESS UP

Don't mess it!

YOUR NEIGHBOR'S THRILL

Dat's right!

'N when you PAY THE BILL

Aww, when y'pay de bill...

Kindly LEAVE A LITTLE TIP

One-Adam-Twelve...

And help the NEXT POOR SUCKER

See de sucker...

On his ONE WAY TRIP!
(SOME TAKE THE BIBLE!)
