First the church, And then the crown. So much flamboyance Gets me down.
They spend so much Expenses grow And I for one Would like to know.
If all the money That they spend Could go to serve Some better end.
Just one example That I see Would be to give That dough to me.

The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
