Samueal Shem’s The House of God:
There was a young intern called Roy,
An idealistic young boy,
But the long hours, the fat man,
The GOMERS and health plans,
made him all burnt out, Oy!
A hard-bitten Continental Op
Told a pretty young burglar to stop
She said, “Go to hades,
You won’t shoot a lady.”
He shot her, and did her jaw drop!
Jane was a model young governess,
When asked to marry she said ‘yes.’
But he already had
A wife who was mad–
Still, the ending is happy, I guess.
So happy was Carrie to find
She could move stuff around with her mind
When they ruined her prom gig
with the blood of a pig
She left their burned corpses behind
An inventive young man named John Galt
Took his ethical stand to a fault
The best brains of the day
He did spirit away
and brought the US to a hault.
Old Lucifer thwarts man’s survival
in a grudge against God, his great rival.
All history’s a fight
'tween the Son and Hell’s might.
(Most folks think it’s all in the Bible!)
