in an interfaith mood
Gimme that Old-Time Religeon
And the gods tore into Loki
Saying "Dei-cide is hokey"
So Thor threw him in the pokey
And that's good enough for me
And though J.C.'s into fish too
He's an avatar of Vishnu
So he's welcome here too
And that's good enough for me
And when old Quetzelcouatl
Found a virgin he could throttle
And put her heart into a bottle
It was good enough for me.
Any time that I start hearin'
"Jesus loves you" I start leerin'
May-be so, but not like Brirn [sp?]
And he's good enough for me
Azathoth is in his chaos
We know he's a really big boss
Now if only he don't slay us
Then that's good enough for me.
Don't neglect that shrine of Zeus'
Though he's lost his vital juices
Still the old boy has his uses
And he's good enough for me.
Father Odin we will follow
And in fighting we will wallow
'Till we end up in Valhalla
And that's good enough for me.
Good old Thor's the god of thunder
Really helped us get our plunder
Though his head's still truly dunder
He's still good enough for me
Hari Krishna he must laugh on
To see me dressed in saffron
With my hair that's only half on
and that's good enough for me
I can hear Valkyries a-comin'
In the air their song is thrumming
They forgot the words, they're humming
Yet they're good enough for me
And for those who follow Cthulhu
We've really got a lulu
Drop a bomb on Honolulu
Cause thats good enough for you
I will rise in early morning
When my Lord gives me the warning
That the Solar Age is dawning
And that's good enough for me.
If you think that you'll be sa-ved,
If you think that you'll be sa-ved,
If you follow Mogan David,
You're not good enough for me.
If you're really into dancing
And want to try some trancing
Then the voodoo gods are prancing
And that's good enough for me
If your rising sign is Aries
You'll be taken by the faeries
Meet the Buddha in Benares
Where he'll hit you with a pie.
In the church of Aphrodite
The Priestess wears a see through nightie
She's a mighty righteous sightie,
And she's good enough for me
In the names of Thor and Odin
Don't you know there's a war on?
Grab a axe and get your woad on
And it's good enough for me
It could be that you're a Parsi.
It could be that you're a Parsi.
Walk on by her; you'll get in free
And you're good enough for me.
It was good enough for Cupid
And the tricks to which he stooped
'thou his wings are kinda stupid
But he's good enough for me
It was good enough for Dagon
A conservative old pagan
Who still votes for Ronald Reagan
And it's good enough for me.
It was good enough for Isis
Who always came through in a crisis
And she hasn't raised her prices
Well, that's good enough for me
It was good enough for Kali;
Though embracing her is folly,
She'd be quite an armful, golly!
So it's good enough for me.
It was good enough for Loki
Where he goes, it sure get's smokey
He thinks Thor's a little hokey
And he's good enough for me
It was good enough for Odin
Though that croakin' was forebodin'
Till at last the Giants rode in;
Still it's good enough for me!
It was good for old Jehovah
He had a son who was a nova
Hey there, Mithras move on ova'
A new resurrection day
It's the opera written for us.
We will all join in the chorus.
It's the opera about Boris
Which is Godunov for me.
Just like Carlos Casteneda,
Just like Carlos Casteneda,
It'll get you sooner or later
And it's good enough for me.
Let us celebrate Jehovah
Who created us \ab/ \ova/
He'll be on tonight on Nova
'cause he's good enough for me.
Let us dance with Dionysus
And get drunk on wine and spices
The Christians call them vices

Goddess of the discord there is
Apple's golden, it's not ferrous
And that's good enough for me.
Let us pray like the Egyptians
Build pyramids to put our crypts in
Fill our subways with inscriptions
It's good enough for me
Let us sing for Brooharia
Though the blood's a lot less cleaner
It's not Christian Santaria
So it's good enough for me
Let us sing to Lord Cthulhu
Don't let Lovecraft try to fool you
Or the Elder Gods WILL rule you
And that's good enough for me.
Let us sing to old Discordia
'Cause it's sure she's never bored ya
And if she's good enough for ya
Then she's good enough for me.
Let us watch Ka.ka.pa.ull
Frolic in her swimming pool
Subjecting chaos to her rule
And that's all right with me
Let us worship Aphrodite,
Though we hear she's rather flighty
Still she looks great in a nightie
And that's good enough for me.
Let us worship Aphrodite
She is beautiful, but flighty
She doesn't were a nightie
But she's good enough for me
Let us worship Zarathustra
Just the way we use 'ta
I'm a Zarathustra booster
And he's good enough for me.
Let us worship old Jehovah
All you other gods move ovah
Cause the one God's takin' over
And it's good enough for me
Let's all drink to Dionysus
His wine and women beyond prices
He made a Maenad out of my Sis
And that's good enough for me
Let's all listen up to Jesus
He says rich folks like old Croesus
Will be damned until Hell freezes
And that don't sound good to me.
Let's hear it for Lord Hermes,
With his stick all full of wormies,
He protects us from the germies,
And that's good enough for me.
My favorite choice is Venus,
though I've heard she is quite heinous,
and she bit me on the ....ELBOW,
and she's good enough for me.
My roommate worships Buddha
There is no idol cuter.
Comes in copper, bronze and pewter
And that's good enough for me
No one wrote a verse for Buddha
Though I think they really could'a
And I really think they should'a
'cause he's good enough for me
Of Lord Shardik you must beware;
To please him you must swear;
'Cause enraged he's a real Bear,
And that's good enough for me.
Of the Old Ones, none is vaster
Even Cthulhu's not his master
I refer to the unspeakable -------
And that's good enough for me
Oh Montezuma used to start out,
By tearing just a part out,
He could really eat your heart out,
But that's good enough for me.
Oh we will sing to dear old Loki,
The Norse God of Fire and Chaos
And that's why this doesn't rhyme--or scan.

'cause the clinic had to screen us,
but she's good enough for me.
Praise to Popacatapetl

Followed Crom up to his throne(in)
And it's good enough for me
There are people into voodoo
Africa has raised a whoodo
Just one little doll will do you
And it's good enough for me.
There are some who practice Shinto
There's no telling what they're into
Though I guess we could begin to
But that's good enough for me
There are those who worship science
And some would send 'em to the Lions
But without 'em we'd have no appliance
So they're good enough for me
There is room enough in Hades
For lots of criminals and shadies
and disreputable ladies
and they're good enough for me
There will be a lot of lovin'
When we're gathered in our coven
Quit your pushin' and your shoven'
So there'll be room enough for me.
There's one thing I do know
Zeus' favorite is Juno
She's the best at, well, you know
And she's good enough for me.
This verse is just for Loki,
he is the god of chaos,
and that's why this verse has no rhyme nor meter,
but he's good enough for me.
Timmy Leary we will sing to
And the things that he was into
(Well, at least it wasn't Shinto)
And that's good enough for me.
To the tune of Handel's "Largo"

Are sure to have a gala
time in old Valhalla
And that's good enough for me
We it's good enough for Hastur
He's a mighty kinky master

On that resurrection day.
We will all bow down to Allah,
For he gave his loyal follow-
Ers the mighty petro-dollah,
And that's good enough for me.
We will all bow down to Enlil
We will all bow down to Enlil
Pass your cup and get a refill
With bold Gilgamesh the brave.
We will all bow to Hephaestus

So he's good enough for me
We will all go to Nirvana
So be sure to mind your manners
Make a left turn at Savannah
And we'll see the Promised Land.

Sit on mats woven of hemp(le)

Yet it's good enough for me.
We will sacrifice to Yuggoth
Carve the signs of Azathoth
Burn a candle for Yog-Sothoth
And the Goat with a thousand young.
We will sacrifice to Yuggoth
Light a candle for Yog-Sothoth
If we're good we'll send a Shoggoth
And that's good enough for me.
We will all be saved by Mithras
We will all be saved by Mithras
Slay the bull and play the zithras
On that resurrection day.

Who sent the Valar 'cross the water
To lead Morgoth to the slaughter

And that's good enough for me.
Where's the gong gang? I can't find it
I think Northwoods is behind it
For they've always been cymbal minded
Yet they're good enough for me.

And sing lots of rowdy verses
Till the neighbors holler curses,
And that's good enough for me.
And the gods tore into Loki

And long!
I'm going camping with a bunch of friends for Midsummer (they're pagan, I'm not but they let me come along for the fun parts like camping!), and I think that it will go a lot like this verse:
We will worship like the Druids,
Drinking strange fermented fluids
Running naked through the wo-ods
And that's good enough for me!
