Lucky #7

The cure for cancer's
around the corner
Life'll be great
and a century longer.

When you crossover
from this physical state
God'll meet you
at the pearly gate.

Fulfillment for every need
Reward for every deed
Patience people, patience indeed!
Follow the shephard or take the lead.

Just a step more
one chore more
Just a test more
one high score more

Things'll be better than before!

Just have faith
in Lucky #7.

Desire' s desire.
To be filled another day
But while we're on the way
Bend down on a knee and pray.

Have faith you'll get things your way!
Yippie-tie-yie-yay.

Is that the ultimate plan
the ultimate promise or really the ruse?
Someday they'll open or bar the promised land
depending on what prophet you choose.

I'll take door number four!
Oh crap--it says I must live poor.
Should've remembered the path to health and heaven
Is always behind Lucky #7

Or how about six meals a day?
No smoking, drinking or acting badly
Yearly screenings and weird proddings
Or filling prescriptions madly

but sadly

Gotta wait til tomorrow to live forever.
Or pray that tomorrow you will live forever
Either here or there
somewhere there's a ticket to forever.

Every desire fullfilled
around the riverbend
Vestial virgins, sweet excursion,
delectable diversions

Someday
what's bad'll be good
if you act as you should
today

On this religion and science
completely agree.
Praise the blessed unity!
