Stephan and Spiritual Quest Chant
If there was a shopping mall
With many gods designed for all
Then I would choose a god for me
Because a soul can’t empty be.
Imagine such a picture, please...
A shop-assistant on his knees,
He smiles and warmly says to me
“Test-prayers in the shop are free”
And he explains that he believes
He’ll find a god to meet my needs.
He takes me down the aisle and says
“Well, different traits our gods possess.
This is Buddha, he’s old.
Reincarnation he taught
Jesus Christ, God’s only son.
He has died for you, Stephan.
This is Allah and, my friend,
Drinking you will have to end.
The Mayas, Celts and Ancient Greeks
Also had their gods, I think
But I don’t know them very well
They are really hard to sell.
Mormons, Baptists, or, I know!
Become a witness of Jehovah!”
I’d look at him and sadly smile,
And say to him “For now I’m fine.”
And after thinking for a while
I’d add “I think I’ll shop on-line”.
