Pretty good.....here's one I thought of:
(Sung to the tune of Puff the Magic Dragon)
Puff, the Governing Body
Lived in New York;
Preached The End was coming 'soon'
to the drunks in Central Park.
Little Jackie Dopy
Loved to hear this stuff
Listened to these men in black
While drinking in the buff
"If you don't stop this drinking
and get thee bap-i-tized;
Then we'll condemn you to your fate
At Armageddon, you'll be fried!"
oh, Puff, the Governing Body
Lived in New York;
Preached The End was coming 'soon'
to the drunks in Central Park.
This scared the hell outta Jackie
Who threw away his booze
Went to meetings every week
Met lots of 'spiritual Jews'
"Don't bother saving money
Or try to find a mate;
The New System will be here soon
Don't you know we know our dates?
Either pioneer or Bethel
If you want to be a star
If we catch you doing something else
We'll boot your butt out of the door!"
oooohhh Puff, the Governing Body
Lived in New York;
Preached The End was coming 'soon'
to the drunks in Central Park.
Then one day it happened
Jackie Dopy came no more
Saw lots of things that didn't ring
Of 'truth' as he'd been told.
So he stopped his pioneering
and service was a bore
And Puff that Governing Body
screamed a great big roar!
(repeat chorus and fade......)
hee-hee....pretty good for doing this on my lunch hour eh?
