Oh dear Oh dear I've happened upon a queer I don't quite know how this should go luckily I have my rulebook here Morality for Fools tells me homosexuality is a sin Now I'm allowed To yell it out loud and tell him how naughty he's been Oh dear Oh dear My neighbor's wife is licking my ear Oh what should I do? What happens next? Lucky I keep the rulebook on top of my desk Morality for fools tells me that adultery is wrong so I ask her to leave and she seems a bit peeved as she was itching to get out of that thong I'll be the first to confess It's sometimes a mess to keep it all straight in my head You see, I have no morality of my own so I use the book's instead It's perfectly fine and I really don't mind It's so much simpler this way I'd rather be told what to do in my life than make my own choices all day

The Rulebook
Oh dear Oh dear I've happened upon a queer I don't quite know how this should go luckily I have my rulebook here Morality for Fools tells me homosexuality is a sin Now I'm allowed To yell it out loud and tell him how naughty he's been Oh dear Oh dear My neighbor's wife is licking my ear Oh what should I do? What happens next? Lucky I keep the rulebook on top of my desk Morality for fools tells me that adultery is wrong so I ask her to leave and she seems a bit peeved as she was itching to get out of that thong I'll be the first to confess It's sometimes a mess to keep it all straight in my head You see, I have no morality of my own so I use the book's instead It's perfectly fine and I really don't mind It's so much simpler this way I'd rather be told what to do in my life than make my own choices all day
This one goes out to the folks who quote scripture without actually trying to understand what they're reading.  They treat the bible as a rulebook instead of a moral supplement, and in some cases I wonder if they'd actually follow their moral code if they weren't afraid of damnation. This does not go out to the people who are respectful in their religion and use it as a guide.  This does not go out to the people that respect people's differences and don't try to force others to follow their belief system.  You guys are cool.  Carry on.
