So, OK, The Moderate Muslim Blues.
And that's a somewhat reprieve, but we'll--
So, it's a shame how things have turned out, dear God.
Your defenders spread nothing but hate, in most religions.
They're making you out to be a fraud.
Your hell sounds like the news from Baghdad,
your heaven, very much like the United Arab Emirates.
Even the pilgrimage is a scam now, dear God.
Books, movies, and plucking the oud, all out loud.
It's devil worship, they say.
And it makes you irate.
That can't be true.
Where did they find such fraud?
And if I don't obey, some Wahhabi bearing a rod
will whip me into shape, force me to prostrate.
Wouldn't that be a shame, dear God?
Isn't a thinker whose faith is flawed better than
a zealot who can't think straight?
Don't tell me you'll accept such fraud.
I know death is coming, but I'm not overawed.
Please tell those goons not to worry about my fate.
It's a damn shame how things have turned out, dear God.
How long will they spin you into their fraud?
