Hark when the night is fallin', hear, hear the pipes a-callin'
Loudly and proudly callin' down thru the glen
There where the hills are sleepin', now feel the blood a-leapin'
High as the spirits of the old highland men!
Towering in gallant fame, Scotland the mountain hame!
High may your proud standards gloriously wave!
Land of the high endeavour, land of the shining river,
Land of my heart, forever, Scotland the brave!

We will all bow down to Enlil There are some who practice Shinto
We will all bow down to Enlil there are some who practice Shinto
Pass your Cup and get a refill! there's no telling what WE'RE into!
With bold Gilgamesh the Brave! but that's good enough for me!
Shall we sing a verse for Venus, Well the Christians all are humming
Of the Gods she is the meanest, Cause they say their God is coming,
Cause she bit me on my...elbow Our God came three times this evening
And it's good enough for me. And that's good enough for me.
We will sing a verse for Loki It was good for old Jehovah
He's the old Norse god of Chaos He had a son who was a nova!
Which is why this verse don't Hey there, Mithras! Move on ova'!
rhyme or scan or nothin' Another resurrection Day!
But it's good enough for me...
It was good for Thor and Odin It could be that you're a Parsi
It was good for Thor and Odin It could be that you're a Parsi
Grab an axe and get your woad on! Don't need a ticket; you get in free
and it's good enough for me! And that's good enough for me!
If you think that you'll be sav-ed Jerry Falwell thinks he's sav-ed
If you think that you'll be sav-ed In a lamb's blood he's been lav-ed
If you follow Mogen David And HE thinks that I'M deprav-ed
Then that's good enough for me! But that's good enough for me...
Well, she raised an awful flurry When old Gerald got it goin'
When she made the scholars worry When old Gerald got it goin'
Thank the Gods for Margaret Murray! All that hidin' turned to showin'
She is good enough for me! And that's good enough for me!
It was good enough for Granny It's not good enough for Reagan
She could throw a double-whammy It's not good enough for Reagan
That would knock you on your fanny He's too square to be a Pagan!
And she's good enough for me! And that's good enough for me!
There are some that call it folly Shall we sing a verse for Thor,
When we worship Mother Kali. Though he leaves the maidens sore?
She may not be very jolly They always come back for more,
But she's good enough for me. So he's good enough for me!
We will all bow down to Allah Where's the gong gone? I can't find it
For he gave his loyal follow I think Northwoods is behind it!
Ers the mighty petro-dollah For they've always been cymbal-minded
And that's good enough for me! And they're good enough for me!
I'll sing some songs to Lilith, Now Danae was sweet as flowers,
Not so young, and not so girlish, She was into golden showers;
and She's always PMS-ish, And that showed her Zeus' power
but She's good enough for me! And that's good enough for me!
Lilith wears a lacy nightie That Bob Larson shrieks and hollers
And She is a little flighty Fighting demons in his callers
She will get you all excite-y Save his program: SEND YOUR DOLLARS!
She's wet-dream enough for me! And that's good enough for me.
There are those who follow Crowley Some folks pray to the Orishas
Tho the stuff that he held holy Tho their humor can be vishas
Turn your your brain to guacamole When they grant your stupid wishas
But he's good enough for me! But they're good enough for me!
There are those who scream and hollar There are those who worship Satan
And get hot under the collar And are just anticipatin'
For their god, Almighty Dollar, Armageddon's conflagratin'
Who is good enough for me! That ain't good enough for me!
There are those who worship no gods Some folks worship the Kachinas
For they think that there are low odds Some folks worship the Kachinas
That the god-seers aren't drunk sods They look like "deus ex machinas",
But they're good enough for me! But they're good enough for me!
Some folks worship all of Nature We will read from the Cabala.
Tho they love to taunt and bait-cher Quote the Tree of Life mandala
They're just funnin', they don't hate-cher It won't get you in Valhalla,
And they're good enough for me! Yet it's good enough for me.
Some folks pray to the Great Spirit There is room enough in Hades
Most folks just cannot get near it For lots of criminals and shadies
So they hate it and they fear it And disreputable ladies,
But it's good enough for me! And they're good enough for me.
We will sing the Jug of Issek, Of Lord Shardik you must beware;
And of Fafhrd his chief mystic, To please him you must swear;
Though to thieving Mouser will stick, 'Cause enraged he's a real Bear,
And that's good enough for me. And that's good enough for me.
You can dance and wave the thyrsos Let us celebrate Jehovah
And sing lots of rowdy verses Who created us "ab ova"
Till the neighbors holler curses, He'll be on tonight on Nova
And that's good enough for me. 'cause he's good enough for me.
Let us praise the Holy Fool Don't neglect that shrine of Zeus'
For he's breaking all the rules Tho he's lost his vital juices

And that's good enough for me! And he's good enough for me!
There's one thing that I do know No one wrote a verse for Buddah

She's the best at doing..you know! And I really think they shoulda
And that's good enough for me! 'Cause he's good enough for me!
All the Gods tore into Loki If you're really into dancing
Saying Deicide is hokey! And you wanna try some trancing
And they threw him in the pokey! Then the Voodoo gods are prancing
And that's good enough for me! And that's good enough for me!
If you wanna worship Odin Good old Thor's the god of thunder
You don't have to have a coat on Really helps us get our plunder
Grab a sword and slap some woad on Tho his head's still truly dunder
And that's good enough for me! He is good enough for me!
I don't really go for Shinto And for those who follow Cthulhu
It's just something I'm not into We have really got a lulu:
Tho I guess I could begin to Drop a bomb on Honolulu!
'Cause it's good enough for me! 'Cause that's good enough for you!
Well it's good enough for H***** Let's all drink to Dionysus
He's a mighty kinky master Wine and women beyond prices!
When you pray he goes much faster He made a Maenad out of my Sis!
And that's good enough for me! And that's good enough for me!
Let us dance with Dionysus The late return of the Prophet Zarquon

With a thousand or more quills And the Unicorn of Amber
By the light that from him spills And the wizard Deliamber
He is good enough for me! They're good enough for me!
In his dancing Pan will lead them Pan's pipes got plugged last summer
When his pipes call we will heed them And it really was a bummer

He's more than enough for me! But he's good enough for me!
It was good enough for Venus We will sing our staves to Venus
She'd have sighed if she'd of seen us We will sing our staves to Venus
Letting morals come between us Tho I think this rhyme is henious
And she's good enough for me! But it's good enough for me!
All the unters start convergin' And to help things get real racous
When Diana is emergin' The priests of Pan and Bacchus
It's too bad she's still a virgin Will hold a f***ing contest!
But there's still hope left for me! And that's all right with me!
We will worship Christian Jesus You can keep your saints with halos,
And do just like John Paul pleases Your hosannas or dayenus:
That we will... when Hades freezes! Let's throw virgins in volcanos!
And that's good enough for me! And that's good enough for me!

THE SEXUAL LIFE OF THE CAMEL, or MY GOD HOW THE MONEY ROLLS IN!
-Anonymous
The sexual life of the Camel My cousin sells shields to the Tuchux
Is stranger than anyone thinks The plywood they're made of is thin;
One night in a moment of passion I'm a doggone good Chiurgeon
He tried to deflower the Sphinx! My God, how the money rolls in!
And here's to the Outlands' new Navy! Elric, he drives a hard bargain
Let's all give them three cheers! While trading for leather or skins
The first submarine made of adobe.... He'll let you keep yours for a
It's been down for thirty-two years! cookie!
My God, how the cookies roll in!
