He stirred in the beginning of the world
peered at where rising ape met falling angel
He looked for a home as he unfurled
The naked apes will be something special
They built an idea a palace of gilt
He laughed gleefully at the prayers
They killed non-believers, swords down to the hilt
He smote, they were worshippers and slayers
They learned that their prayers were futile
They stopped believing one by one, all gone
The god withered away, a death brutal
A new god received the church and the crown
A footnote in a religion textbook
Be ever wary of a god that is a crook
