The JEDP Hypothesis Song by quiavideruntoculi published on 2014-04-12T15:35:47Z There are men in the world Or so I am told Who laugh common sense to scorn.

Moses wrote the Pentateuch It's enough to make the Respectable puke From the lowliest don to the silliest Duke: Moses wrote the Pentateuch These fellows contend That the Bible's back end Was composed in a way quite perverse. Instead of one writer They make four of the blighters And they know that they're wrong, which is worse. Moses wrote the Pentateuch I forbear to let them off the hook; They may jeer any jibe, they may cock any snook; Still, Moses wrote the Pentateuch They may jibber of E, They may jabber of J, May wax lyric of D or P But the whole motley crew, At the end of the day, Should be trussed up and thrown in the sea.

They may mutter and groan In the noisesomest tone Crying, "half-wit!" or "illiterate!" The fact is, the year they ascribe to the tome Is 600 years too late. Moses wrote the Pentateuch You can see for yourself, if you'll bother to look. And I'd best finish now - all the rhymes have been took. Moses wrote the Pentateuch. Genre Comedy
