Mary's war canticle
Mary singing:
Why are men so fearing Mary?
Is it because I'm rather scary?
Or do they shy just to be nice?
Rather I think that they are mice.
Men, put away your utter fears!
Go to war before your peers!
Make your adult women proud;
Come back victorious or beneath a shroud!
I'm so sick of impious lazies;
Do your work and obey my ladies.
Do you not yet realize you're slaves?
Fit to serve from wars to graves.
Yet, I am worried about my husband,
I think there's talk about him buzzing!
Maybe he needs exercise,
To keep his mind fully alive.
Eric:
Mary, am I in mortal danger?
Mary:
As long as you don't destroy our Manger,
I will keep you satisfied,
And you earn my eternal prize.
But should you turn to other ladies,
That would lead you into Hades.
For I do not let those who betray me
Have their joy and fill of plenty.
Eric:
Are you speaking of the Virgin Tora?
If so, how do I prevent that horror?
Mary:
Make me your solitary queen,
I won't share you with another being.
Become the celibate man you swore,
Let my love for you outpour,
For my heart is for you my lover,
For I was made for you to cover.
Eric:
I agree, O' Blessed Mary!
You alone will I now marry.
Tora will only be a friend,
For her salvation does God me send.
Mary:
Keep that vow, and make no mention
Of marriage again, for your retention
In my ranks of honor and glory,
For soon is coming the end of story.
I claimed you without an error,
Now be my husband with my prayer.
For I alone can save your soul,
And I alone can bring you whole.
Jesus only made it happen,
But I'm the one who speaks in Latin,
Aramaic, Greek and Hebrew.
And I'm your lover and a Jew.
