Blast Fo’ Me Poem by Vince Rogers

You believe VOODOO is 'Spook'ee
And Hey-Seuss was 'WHITE'
But if I told you
I saw some Darkie walk on water
You'd say I saw no such sight


The B.i.b.l.e. says Moses passed for Egyptian? ? ? ?
And Simon was a genuine Coon
But if I told you
They got virgin Madonnas in every ghetto
You'd just think I was just a loon


All-U-Can-Eat Fried Catfish and Cornbread
Just by laying his White Lily hands upon it
But if I tried to sell you
This same big fish story
You'd say 'Somethin’ ‘bout dat jus’ don’t fit'


Leviticus said don't drink no Manishevitz
Nor have no strong drink
But if I told you
Obatala can turn water to wine
What would that make you think? ? ? ?


They say that God is a MAN
And somehow single-handedly begot a son
They tell you
Make sure you tithe
It's for that perpetual chu’ch buildin’ fund


You believe li’l ole david
Cracked Go-lieth in da head wit' a fat rock
You even believe
Europeans was the first in 'The Garden'
Even though it's somewhere in Iraq


You think you’re goin' to HEAVEN
And all that other stuff you believe in
But if I told you
Sartre said 'Hell is YOU! ! ! ! '
You'd just call me an ole heathen


You believe in the 'GoodBook'! ! ! !
You think one day you goin' up yonder
You believe the MASTER
Gave the slaves their salvation? ? ? ?
Now that’s something you really need to ponder
