Exodus Rap

The Lord said to Moses, "Now what'll it be
Shall I come as a Glory or come as a Key?
Shall I open a door that was locked before
Or go through Egypt like the third world war?"
And Moses replied, "The people are dense
Whatever it is let it be immense;
Lets smash old pharoah and his rabbit-proof fence.
Who needs a key when he hasn't a lock?
Make the sphinx have kittens and the pyramids rock."
And the Lord said, "See, it's all the same to me,
There's many roads to the Land of the Free.
Some are short and some are long
But every one is renowned in song.
You could have gone in but you're gonna go out
Where there's far more trouble to be worried about.
I'll take your hand but please understand
The next forty years will be sand, sand, sand."

Thanks.

It's always important to get the last lines right. They're the ones the reader takes away with them.
