IMMACULATE CONCEPTION
Mary's always been such a good girl,
Quiet, loving, obedient.
It's such a shock to find out she's pregnant.
Whatever will the neighbours say?
And that Joseph, still protesting his innocence -
But agreeing to marry her anyway -
The child must be his!
I've always been a God-fearing woman.
Brought my children up the same way.
I feel so ashamed of her,
And now she's making it worse by telling lies!
Mary says "It's God's Son"
Well, I ask you, would you believe her?
I've heard some far-fetched excuses in my time,
But this takes the unleavened bread!
But I suppose if God were looking for a human mother for His Son,
My Mary would be a good choice.
God alone knows how this will all end
