Mary And Joseph |
Sweet Mary and Joseph |
In a rocket machine |
Where travelling the void |
With not a star to be seen |
Deep out there in space |
With no-one to help them |
Not a gentle kind face |
After millions of miles |
Came a bright silver star |
With planets and moons |
All arrayed near and far |
Now there’s hope for the future |
A place to lay down |
The son of God’s coming soon |
Now the planet of fire |
He would not let them land |
And the planet of water |
He couldn’t understand |
But the green pastoral Earth |
He beckoned them down |
They came singing with mirth |
That night they took shelter |
In a Holiday Inn |
And Mary in labour |
Her pains did begin |
And her baby was born |
To the sound of the truck drivers |
Blowing their horns |
Far from the East |
Came the Kremlin’s top brass |
From the West came the President |
And his aides smoking grass |
From the North came the Queen |
From the South came the black brothers |
Ending his dream |
