A Good Christian

 

By Elton Camp

 

(Note:  This is about a hypocritical, churchy woman

who is speaking on the phone to another woman.  She

is slandering a third member of their church.)

 

I couldn’t believe that dress she wore

Anybody would think she’s a w***e

Even for her, it was a big surprise

The hem was halfway up her thighs

 

Her neckline was a daring as could go

It surely shows that her morals are low

And the pearl necklace she picked out

Those gems were paste, there’s no doubt

 

Her ring with a diamond that’s so large

Is either a phony or she got it on charge

Wanda’s fancy watch showed “Rolex,”

But surely she changed it from “Timex”

 

And those hose were tinted a dark blue

That’s what a loose woman would do

Those shoe heels were six inches tall

And red isn’t the right shoe color at all

 

Also, her breasts are the largest you see

Another Dolly Parton she’s trying to be

A plastic surgeon must’ve helped her out

Those things are silicone I’ve little doubt

 

If she should die, to hell she’ll depart

But yet I still love her, bless her heart

I’ll see you at the church on Sunday

But don’t tell Wanda anything I say
