A PIG IS A PIG

 

A pig is a pig

Take a hose

And bathe him

Get a brush

And scrub him

Pour some shampoo

Then massage very well

And wash all over

But look right after

To the ditch you’ll find him

 

Oh scorner, yes, a scorner

It’s like finding a pearl

Hanging on a pig’s snout

The wisdom you share

It’s foolish to him

The wonders you show

It’s crazy he thinks

He draws near but to find fault

He listens but to argue

So, stay away from him

 

But here is the thing

If you want to keep a pig clean

Take some water again

Make sure it’s boiling

Then get some rope and tie him

Hold tightly with your knife

Don’t be afraid to give a strike

Point the neck and pierce it harder

Never mind when he screams

That’s the only way not to get dirt again

John 9:27-41

 

27 He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples? 28 Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.

29 We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is. 30 The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes. 31 Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth. 32 Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind. 33 If this man were not of God, he could do nothing. 34 They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out. 35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God? 36 He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him? 37 And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee. 38 And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him. 39 And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind. 40 And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also? 41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
