Very nice, the gold, frankincense, myrrh,
Thinks young Mary, but Jesus! Why her?
Still, poor Joseph’s not bright,
And her alibi’s tight.
Virgin birth, right? These things do occur!

Short shrift
Young Kathleen Jones was heard to lament,
(A small act of religious dissent),
“God! What’s wrong with these men?
For a root now and then
I’d quite gladly confess and repent!”
She told her so
Her mum shouted “Well, what did I tell you?
I said don’t take men at face value!
They promise the earth…
But there’s no virgin birth!
You deserve ev’rything that befell you!”
