My favourite story was Noah's Ark
More animals than the zoo and my park
But the whole bible I'd not read at all
It's big and heavy - the print's far too small
At school I learned about day and night
Which started when God said, 'Let there be light!'
He was alone and talked to himself
Everyone knows that's not good for your health
He made Adam and Eve, some people believe
And also a snake, which was a mistake
Eveyone knows that snakes are no good
It wouldn't let ancestors do what they should
I learned father, Christmas, wore red and white
His wife, mother, Mary, held their baby tight
Three wise men rode camels, they'd missed the plane
I'd not got it right, but no-one explained
When you like a book, what do you do?
You ask the librarian for the book two
They renamed the bible, the 'Old' testament
And promoted the next one with the word 'New'.
