Judas Iscariot Bought himself a chariot; He said, "I'm goin' to Jerusalem To buy me some chewin' gum!" But when he got there, All he could find was Jesus's stare; So he said to his self sunny, "I'm gonna make some money Off that guy's face so funny." So he went to where the guards lived, And they talked 'round, e'en quipped! Till finally, one of them said, "Well, where is this 'Jesus' who can     make body from bread?" "For thirty pieces of silver I'll show     you where!" Judas said to them as he put in them a     scare, But they paid him off, and he     pronounced, "Let's get Christ!" and off they     bounced. In the garden Jesus was praying; "There he is!" Judas was saying; "So, you fulfilled your betrayal," Jesus said to Judas upon their arrival; Judas just kissed Him (of all things),     and looked away; Uttered to himself in his uniquely     inimitable, inimical way, "Now! this is what I call 'a good day's     pay!'" Later, Iscariot Drove his chariot To a place not too well known, And realizing the deed he had done, He took his own life: he became none.            *             *            *           * So now, one and all, the moral of this     story, Should it ever be told, Is: Don't bask in the glory Of ill-gotten gold!                           The End

Iscariot's Chariot's On Fire
Judas Iscariot Bought himself a chariot; He said, "I'm goin' to Jerusalem To buy me some chewin' gum!"
