PSALM 23
The Adman's version


The Adman's 23rd Psalm

The Adman is my shepherd;
I shall ever want.

He maketh me to walk a mile for a Camel;
He leadeth me beside Crystal Waters in the High Country of Coors;
He restoreth my soul with Perrier;
He guideth me in Marlboro Country
For Mammon's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the Valley of the Jolly Green Giant,
In the shadow of B.O., halitosis, indigestion, headache pain, and hemorrhoidal tissue,
I will fear no evil,
For I am in Good Hands with Allstate;
Thy Arid, Score, Tums, Tylenol, and Preparation H--
They comfort me.

Stauffer's preparest a table before the TV, in the presence of all my appetites;
Thou anointest my head with Brylcream;
My Decaffeinated Cup runneth over.

Surely surfeit and security shall follow me all the days of Metropolitan Life,
And I shall dwell in a Continental Home with a mortgage
forever and ever.

Amen.
