This one may not be a masterpiece but it kicks along and delivers a bit of punch. Jet lagged after Jamaica the tune jumped into my head. I think I'd heard someone on the radio and been reminded that you just can't argue logic around religion.
Faith means believing against all logic and the less sense it makes to believe the more faithful you are so well done! If you pray your village won't slide into the sea and then it does prayer still works, it just wasn't the right thing to ask for.
Anyway in my jet lagged state I imagined the end of the song being a bigger and bigger chant of "praying to the kings kings" steamrollering over a yelping version of me. Maybe I should have done that, instead I did this!...
oh the video is kind of distracting from the meaning in places so the words are below; I did it quick and the kids liked it so here it is - hope I didn't go too far (it's not very subtle).
Look after yourselves atheists! and if you are religious don't hurt anyone :-)
