Dear God,
when and if I get to heaven
will you make me pray?
I think I've done enough,
its snuffed me out,
so if I get up there and shout,
'please let me in'
don't you be thinking of my sin and
insisting on a lot more prayer,otherwise
I won't come there.
I'll show my face in that other place,where
indeed my friends will be,I'll
drink wine with fallen angels and invite
vicars in for tea.
On the whole I think for me that heaven
is the place to be,
it's just the praying I can't stand and why
pray when it's the promised land?
Dear God,
I know that I'm an awkward sod but allowances
must be made and
if you are the maker I will meet don't ask
me to kneel and
pray at your feet.
I know,
that praying stuff is 'buff' but really
I've done quite enough.
Yours sincerely nearly there
your humble subject
Yogi bear.
