The Meek Shall Inherit Nothing

Some take the bible for what it's worth

When it says that the meek shall inherit the earth

Well, I heard that some sheik

Eb

Bought New Jersey last week

And you suckers ain't gettin' nothing!

(This line is all single note in the bass except the F at the F.)

Is Hare Rama really wrong

If you wander around with a napkin on

With a bell on a stick

An' your hair is all gone...

(The meek shall inherit nothin')

You say your life's a bum deal

A^Bb

And you're up against the wall

Well, people, you ain't even got no kind of deal at all

`Cause what they do

In Washington

They just takes care of number one

And number one ain't you

You ain't even number two!

Those Jesus freaks, well they're friendly but

The shit they believe has got their minds all shut

An' they don't even care

When the church takes a cut

Ain't it bleak when you got so much nothin'

So whaddya do?

Eat that pork, eat that ham

Eb

Laugh till you choke on Billy Graham

Moses, Aaron and Abraham, they're all a waste of time

And it's your ass that's on the line

(It's your ass that's on the line)

Do what you wanna, do what you will

Just don't mess up your neighbor's thrill

And when you pay the bill

Eb

Kindly leave a little tip

And help the next poor sucker on his one way trip

Some take the bible oh, oh

(Awww, give me half a dozen for the hotel room)
