Papa, Won't Ya Gimme a Lift ?

They saw Jesus in a call-box, groanin'
Didn't know who it was He was phonin'
Magdalene was prescient 'bout her stonin'
Said it was the FLYER who was moanin'

'Zebub went to dinner with the Buddha
Prince said : "Give the moon back, if you would-a"
Flappings quipped : "I don't know if I should-a"
So they bearthed a visit to their Mudder

Moo-Cow says she's feelin' frightful gilty
Midas well be judged while scales are tilty
Hearts get very heavy when they're silty
Kinda leaves you reelin, washed and wilty

Son of shaman-man, Man who should we pray ?
"Doesn't matter what you do or don't say"
I saw Jesus in a call-box, groanin'
Guess I knew who it was He was phonin'
"Doesn't matter what you do or don't say
Gonna get to Heaven some day, an'way

P...P...P...
Papa, won't ya gimme a lift ?"
