Tolerance

Americans are tolerant of ev'ry sort of creed;

That's because they're dumber than an ordinary weed

When it comes to who was who and what is what today

In religions of the world, both near and far away.

The Ten Commandments are unknown or else we are quite liable

To think a movie started them, and not the sacred Bible.

The Dalai Lama is a self-help guru, that is all –

To know he was a Buddhist god would throw us a curve ball.

We might burn the Koran but we never would dare read it –

Martin Luther, way down South some marching -- didn't he lead it?

Maimonides, now there's a name we think we ought to know –

Some famous Deli on Broadway for pastrami after the show.

Atheists are experts on religion, no big deal –

Since all of Heaven's thunder they intend to someday steal.
