The House That Job Built: (April 6th,2008)

God told Job to build a house in his honour: Where only the most righteous could enter So for 40 days and nights - poor Job Worked his socks off- until it was complete However, this ill- fated chap was doomed To fail due to his scheming ' so called friends: ' Who appeared holy and as innocent as doves But really were corrupt; their hearts as black as coal Naive Job had wrongly assumed that they Were philanthropists raising piles of dosh for charity So he had allowed them to help him fund his project But as it turned out it was only for their own greedy ends For they could see the house of worship was magnificent; A certain money earner - a guaranteed investment. Job had built it, only to see it soldand later torn down No thanks to sly back stabbing cowards, sycophants and clowns As well as all the provincial parasites and philistin; es; By gross lack of judgement not by well planned design By the half witted hypocrites: who believed that they could do better; Maybe convert it into a small hotel then flog it off to the highest bidder. To cut a long story cut, a beautiful house of dreams Made to honour the Creator was destroyed by Some rather jealous, ignorant, silly little boys Whose egos were so much larger than their Feeble minds: puffed up by their own self-praise And swollen pride. Poor Job should have realised That it's futile to cast pearls before swine. But like those vain, greedy odious fools That killed the gift of the precious, prized goose That laid the golden eggs immortalised In classic legend, fable and fairytale In the end they were left penniless; Destroying themselves in the process. For God was most displeased with the errors of their ways And Job was raised to heaven; while those sinners paid By being cast into the very bowels of hell!
