O Lord, please don’t burn us.  
Don’t grill or toast your flock.  
Don’t put us on the barbecue  
Or simmer us in stock.  
Don’t braise or bake or boil us,  
Or stir-fry us in a wok.

Oh, don’t grovel! Do get up. If there’s one thing I can’t stand, it’s people grovelling! And don’t apologize! Every time I try to talk to someone it’s “sorry” this and “forgive me” that and “I’m not worthy” and… what are you doing now?
