There is something I need to tell you,
It’s about the graveyard under my bed,
It’s full of all kinds of strange things,
Even poor bugs which have lost their head.
You see my two cats are such big rascals,
They will simply play and play all day,
But when my kitties are finally done,
They like to hide their “toys” away.
It seems that no matter what it is,
A toilet paper roll, a bug or a lace,
Everything with very few exceptions,
Winds up in that very same dark place.
When we’re young we think we’re so smart,
Well, much more so than that old fart.
He just sits there with a great big grin,
We have no idea exactly where he’s been.
So we ignore the great wisdom he shares,
Nobody even looks at him, nobody cares.
We get into trouble, stew in our juice,
And soon we’re hanging in our own noose.
We’re not so smart after all, it seems,
That old man with a knowing look beams.
So next time we’ll listen to his advice,
And not be so cocky, and be more nice.
“For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, TO FILL UP THEIR SINS ALWAY: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.” 1 Thessalonians 2:14-16, KJV
“Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. FILL YE UP THEN THE MEASURE OF YOUR FATHERS.” Matthew 23:29-31, KJV
“And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having A GOLDEN CUP IN HER HAND FULL OF ABOMINATIONS AND FILTHINESS OF HER FORNICATION:” Revelation 17:4, KJV
“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: IN THE CUP WHICH SHE HATH FILLED FILL TO HER DOUBLE.” Revelation 18:4-6, KJV
