Lord God Tomato – 26th June 1984

~ shaun tenzenmen ~ Leave a comment

Some people worship God
Some people worship more than two
Some people adhere to the bible
Some people just don’t care who
I worship – the Lord God Tomato
Eating tomatoes is a cannibalistic venture
This is how we are put to torture
Made to eat our own kind
Though some people don’t mind
The bible bashers have got it all wrong
They’ve been in the dark much too long
The Lord God Tomato is right
We don’t really have to fight
